B2 Flashcards
what some adaptations of Xylem
dead
lignin layer for strengt
physical proccess no energy needed
what are adaptations of the Phloem
requires energy (to go in multiple directions)
sieve plates perferated sugar can move between cells
sieve tube no nucleus
companion cells (line the sieve tube) prvides the sieve tube with enegy
what are the stages in the cell cycle
growth and DNA replication
mitosis
cytokinesis
What happens in DNA
Copies chromasomes
DNA unzips complimentary bases line up
forms DNA base pairs
when strand is complete two identicle strands of DNA
What are the phases in Mitosis (explain)
Prophase - nuclear envelope breaks
Metaphase - chromasomes line up along the equator
Anaphase - Chromasomes move to opposite ends of the cell
Telophase - nuclear envelope reforms
What is cytokinesis
after Anaphase cell membrane pinches inwards (separates the two daughter nuclei)
