CELL DIVISION
100
The basic unit of life usually controlled by a nucleus.
What are cells?
100
Contains most of the cell's DNA.
What is a nucleus?
100
Contains a chloroplast
What is a plant cell?
100
Contains a nucleoid (a region containing free DNA)
What is a feature of a prokaryotic cell?
100
The process by which the nucleus divides to form two genetically identicall nuclei.
What is mitosis?
200
~Living organisms are composed of cells ~Cells are the smallest units of life ~Cells come from pre-existing cells
What is the cell theory?
200
Contains dissolved substances, enzymes, and the cell organelles.
What is a cytoplasm?
200
Usually rectangular shaped.
What is What is a plant cell?
200
Cells that usually divide by binary fission
What are prokaryotic cells?
200
Repeated uncontrolled divisions that produce a mass of cells.
What is a tumor?
300
Populations of cells withing organisms that retain the capacity to self-renew by cell division and to differentiate into various cell types.
What are stem cells?
300
Carries out cell respiration and acts as energy transformers.
What is a mitochondria?
300
The vacuole takes up a large portion in this cell
What is a plant cell?
300
~Algae ~Protozoa ~Fungi ~Plants ~Animals
What are examples of organisms with eukaryotic cells?
300
A phase in which the cells carries out many biochemical reactions and grows larger.
What happens during interphase.
400
~Embryonic ~Tissue-specific
What are types of stem cells?
400
Stores, modifies, and packages proteins.
What is a golgi apparatus?
400
Found in animals but usually not in plants.
What is a centriole?
400
Usually contains a nucleus
What is a eukaryotic cell?
400
When chromosomes uncoil and are no longer individually visible.
What happens during telophase?
500
Reduction of human suffering VS. taking of a human life.
What is the argument for and against stem cells?
500
Contain and transport enzymes. Usually absent from plant cells.
What are lysosomes?
500
Is an hererotroph.
What is an animal cell?
500
The structures of this type of cell brings about compartmentalization which allows chemical reactions to be separated.
What is an eukaryotic cell?
500
~When an individual needs to grow ~During embryonic development ~When damaged tissues need to be repaired ~When reproducing asexually
When is mitosis needed?
