The 2 main phases of the cell cycle

Interphase and Mitosis

100

Where in the cell are chromosomes located?

The nucleus of the cell

100

During what phase does all of the following occur? Tighter coiling of chromosomes (condensing), breaking down of the nuclear envelope, disappearing of nucleolus.

Prophase

100

Stopping points within the cell cycle that regulate the health and progress of a cell

checkpoint

100

What organelle is the "powerhouse" of the cell?

The Mitochondria 

100

What type of cells are bacteria?

Prokaryotic cells

200

What macromolecules are responsible for monitoring a cell's progress from phase to phase during the cell cycle (at each checkpoint)?

Proteins

200

Phase when DNA is replicated

S phase

200
The process by which nuclear material is divided equally between two new cells is ______________.
Mitosis
200

The uncontrolled division of cells is known as __________.

Cancer

200

Which organelle is studded with ribosomes?

Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum 

200
How is the DNA described in prokaryotic cells? What does this mean?

Described as "free-floating" means not encased in a nucleus. 

300
The longest phase of the cell cycle.
Interphase
300
The identical two halves of a doubled chromosome structure are called _________________.
sister chromatids
300
The phase of mitosis in which chromatids separate from each other is ___________________
anaphase.
300

This regulator starts the cell cycle

proto-oncogene

300

What do ribosomes do?

They are the site of protein synthesis! 

300

Which is more complex, the prokaryotic cell or Eukaryotic Cell?

Eukaryotic Cell

400
______ is a substage of interphase when the cell is growing, protein production is high, and the cell is preparing to replicate the DNA.
G1
400

If looking at a cell underneath a microscope and the DNA is visible, is the cell in interphase or mitosis?

It is in mitosis

400
Chromosomes line up at the equator during ____________.
metaphase
400

Programmed cell death

Apoptosis

400

What is cytoplasm?

The gelatinous liquid that fills the inside of the cell -- organelles "float" around in it. 
400

What is the purpose of the flagellum?

To help prokaryotic organisms move around/swim

500

Checkpoints throughout the cell cycle are regulated by _______________.

cell cycle regulators

500

Long strands of DNA inside the nucleus (like cotton candy).

chromatin

500

Name the phases of MITOSIS in the correct order.

Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase, Cytokinesis

500

This regulator stops tumors from forming

tumor suppressor gene

500
What is the main difference between and plant and an animal cell?

The plant cell has a cell wall, the animal cell does not

500
Which type of organism are humans?

Eukaryrotic
