The cell cycle
This part of the cell cycle includes gap 1, synthesis, and gap 2 phases.
What is interphase?
The M phase occurs as the ____________ step of the cell cycle
What is the last?
Cancer is best defined as __________________ ______________
What is uncontrolled mitosis or uncontrolled cell division?
The largest structure that DNA can be identified as.
What is the double helix?
A Feedback mechanism responds to these.
What are stimuli?
During this phase, the cell grow larger and develops organelles for the first time.
What is gap 1 or G1 phase?
During mitosis, this organelle degrades s that DNA can be accessed and passed onto offspring.
What is the nucleus?
Cancerous cells can form ___________ that are either localized or malignant.
This portion of the DNA determines the phenotypes of individuals by coding for proteins. This are classified as the "functional units" of DNA.
What are genes?
_________________ occurs when someone cannot properly regulate blood glucose because they cannot produce insulin.
What is type I diabetes?
The cell cycle is regulated by ______________ that respond to environmental stimuli before allowing the cell to continue.
what are check points?
Mitosis is involved in many life processes. Can you identify at least one?
What is:
wound healing
growth
embryonic development
cellular differentiation
Cancer is caused when ________________ affect _____________ _________________ ______________ causing uncontrolled division of cells.
What is mutations and tumor suppressor genes.
These genes regulate mitosis and the cell cycle, examples of these genes include p53, BRCA I, and BRCA II genes.
What are tumor suppressor genes?
This system is responsible for sensing the environment and responding to stimuli to maintain homeostasis.
What is the nervous system?
Cancer cells have a shorter __________________ allowing them to get to the mitotic phase faster so cell division can occur more quickly.
Wat is interphase?
The mother cell divides into two daughter cells that have ___________________________________
What is identical DNA?
What are the three types of cancer treatment?
What is surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy?
These change the sequence of bases in a DNA molecule. They can occur randomly or through exposure to environmental conditions.
What is a genetic mutation?
The glucose channel protein allowing glucose into the cell is a type of passive transport known as. . .
What is facilitated diffusion?
During the S phase ____________________________
occurs, doubling the amount of DNA inside of the nucleus.
During anaphase of mitosis, proteins attach to the chromosomes of the cell and _____________ ____________ the DNA to opposite sides of the cell.
Pulls apart
Stage IV of cancer occurs when a benign tumor begins to ___________________ and spread cancerous cells throughout the boy to other organs and tissues.
What is metastasize?
If you have 3.6% of the nitrogenous base THYMINE in a sample of collected DNA, what are the percentages of other bases in the DNA molecule?
What is:
A = 3.6%
C = 46.4%
G = 46.4%
This circuit allows gasses to flow into and out of the body so that it can be transported to muscles to produce ATP.
What is the pulmonary circuit?
