Cell Cycle
Mitosis
100
when chromatin condense they form
chromosomes
100
What ratio can limit the size of a cell?
surface area : volume
100
a family of proteins that regulate cell growth
cyclins
100
What occurs during cytokinesis?
the cytoplasm divides into two cells
100
What is the purpose of mitosis
to replace damaged cells
200
Planned cell death is called
apoptosis
200
How many chromosomes are in the human body?
46
200
Not all cells can differentiate. Cells that can become any type of cell are called
totipotent
200
What are the three stages of interphase?
G1, S and G2
200
chromosome align along the equator of the cell during which phase of mitosis?
metaphase
300
The reproduction of prokaryotes is called?
binary fission
300
Cellular growth occurs during which stage of interphase?
G1
300
uncontrolled cell growth and division is called
cancer
300
What is formed as a result of mitosis?
2 identical cells
300
What is the role of spindle fibers
to move chromosomes in the cell
400
Sister chromatids are attached in the middle by a
centromere
400
larger cells strain their
DNA
400
name two sources adult stem cells can come from (specific location from the adult, the answer is not adult)
bone marrow, lymph vessel or blood
400
If a cell has 24 chromosomes, how many chromosomes will each of the daughter cells have?
24
400
what is the longest phase of mitosis?
prophase
500
Unspecialized cells are called
stem cells
500
What are the pros of sexual and asexual reproduction?
Sexual - Genetic Diversity Asexual - fast and easy
500
what is cancer caused by
mutation/disruption of the cell cycle
500
Cytokinesis is different in plant and animals cells because
plant cells have a cell wall that cannot be pinched into two cells like the plasma membrane of animal cells.
500
What are the stages of mitosis, in order
Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase
