Signaling
Communication of cells who are touching
what is direct signaling?
Phase of growth to prepare for cell division
what is interphase?
Phase of mitosis where chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell
what is metaphase?
first step of the signal transduction pathway
what is reception?
these help maintain that cells are growing properly and are healthy
what are checkpoints?
communication of cells that are in separate parts of the body
what is long distance / endocrine signaling?
Phase where the cell divides
what is mitosis
Phase of mitosis where chromosomes move to separate ends of the cell
what is anaphase?
what is the most common type of feedback we see in the body?
what is negative feedback?
This will happen to a cell that does not meet checkpoint standards
what is cell death?
communication of cells who are nearby each other
what is local signaling?
what is g1?
Phase of mitosis where the nuclear envelope breaks down & DNA condenses
What is prophase?
final step of the signal transduction pathway
what is response?
type of feedback that increases change in the body
what is positive feedback?
communication of a cell with itself, commonly used by cancer cells
what is autocrine signaling?
What is the section of interphase where the cell grows to specifically prepare for division
what is g2?
Phase of mitosis where two nuclei begin to form
what is telophase?
2nd step of the signal transduction pathway
what is transduction?
what happens to pathways that get interrupted?
what is, everything that occurs after the step will no longer occur (etc)?
general local communication of cells nearby each other, used by immune cells for example
what is paracrine signaling?
what is the section of interphase when the DNA replicates
what is s phase?
Phase of mitosis where the cytoplasm splits
what is cytokinesis?
term that describes the optimal conditions to be in to maintain homeostasis, moving away from this means homeostasis is no longer maintained
what is set point?
name any of the steps of feedback
what is stimulus, sensor, effector, response?
