Regulation of Cell Cycle
Cancer/Nondisjunction
100
Cancer treatments work this way.
What is by targeting cells actively involved in cell division, including noncancerous cells that are dividing?
100
The longest stage of the cell cycle - some cells never leave this stage.
What is interphase?
100
This process produces four haploid gametes that have genetic variation.
What is a meiosis?
100
Cyclins/CDK's are a protein/enzyme complex that regulate this.
What is the cell cycle.
100
This process results in 4 genetically different, haploid cells.
What is meiosis?
200
Matching pairs of chromosomes are known as:
What are homologous chromosomes?
200
The DNA of a cell is copied during this part of interphase.
What is S (synthesis)?
200
This is the part of the cell cycle in which the cell's cytoplasm divides.
What is cytokinesis?
200
When cyclins don't perform their jobs properly, and cell division is out of control, this condition can result.
What is cancer?
200
When two haploid gametes combine to make a zygote, how many chromosomes should the new human organism have?
What are 46 (or 23 pair)?
300
Cell division (mitosis and cytokinesis) produces these.
What are two identical diploid daughter cells?
300
Sister chromatids, one from each parent, come together to form these.
What are chromosomes?
300
This is the part of mitosis and meiosis in which chomosomes line up along the equator of the cell.
What is metaphase?
300
Cyclins bind with these to cause the cell to move to the next stage of the cycle.
What are cyclin dependent kinases (CDKs)?
300
An uncontrolled cell division caused by mutations in genes that control the cell cycle lead to this.
What is cancer/a tumor?
400
Which increases faster as a cell gets larger, surface area or volume?
What is volume?
400
The correct order, beginning to end, of mitosis.
What is prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase?
400
This type of cell divides using a cell plate.
What is a plant cell?
400
This is the analogy to that we used to help us understand the function of cyclins.
What are traffic lights?
400
A nondisjunction that occurs with chromosome 21 that results in a human inheriting an extra 21st chromosome is:
What is Down Syndrome?
500
When a cell gets too big it has these problems.
What is the inability to transport materials in/out of cell, and the inability to communicate?
500
This is the stage of the cell cycle in which the cell's nuclear material divides.
What is mitosis?
500
List from beginning to end all of the stages of the cell cycle.
What is:Interphase (G1 S G2), Mitosis (Prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase), Cytokinesis
500
The types of molecule that cyclins and CDKs (cyclin dependent kinases) are.
What are proteins and enzymes?
500
As a last result, a mutated cancer cell can self-destruct using this process. It is also a normal part of development.
What is apoptosis?
