Interphase
Mitosis
Mutations
Cancer
Cell Differentiation
100
The phase where a cell grows the most.
What is the G1 phase?
100
The end result of Mitosis.
What is two daughter cells?
100
Mutation that has no effect on the protein sequence.
What is a silent mutation?
100
Uncontrolled division of cells.
What is cancer?
100
A cell that can become any specialized cell in an organism.
What is a stem cell?
200
The process that takes place in the S phase.
What is DNA replication?
200
Phase of mitosis where two daughter cells have completely separated and created two distinct cell membranes.
What is Telophase and cytokinesis?
200
Insertion/deletion of one or more bases?
What is frameshift?
200
A tumor
What is a mass of abnormal cells?
200
What is the same between heart and lung cells?
What is genetic information (DNA)?
300
This phase takes about 80% of a cell cycles time.
What is Interphase?
300
Phase where DNA lines up at the center of the cell.
What is metaphase?
300
Mutation that is taking place?

300
A "Go" signal is also known as...
What is Proto-oncogenes?
300
Phase a cell enters when it becomes differentiated.
What is G0?
400
Reason DNA must be replicated in the S phase.
What is, so that the 2 daughter cells can have equal amount of DNA?
400
Phase this cell is currently in.
What is prophase?
400
Definition of nonsense mutation?
What is a stop codon substitutes for an amino acid?
400
Environmental factors that can trigger cancer?
What is UV radiation, heat, age, chemical exposure, cigarette smoke, genetics, radiation exposure and/or pollution?
400
Difference between muscle cells and skin cells.
What is gene expression?
500
After DNA is replicated, the final step for Interphase.
What is G2 phase where the cell grows again before mitosis takes place?
500
Process that takes place during Anaphase.
What is spindle fibers split DNA in half to opposite ends of the cell?
500
A mutation when an amino acid has been substituted.
What is missense mutation?
500
At the G1 checkpoint this is searched for.
What is DNA synthesis to begin? OR What is DNA damage, cell growth and nutrition?
500
Reason the process of mitosis would be important for skin cells.
What is, skin cells are constantly damaged and need to be repaired at a fast rate.
