Bio Flashcards
Divergent evolution
Diverge from single ancestor
Eukaryotic cells
Have a cell wall
Nuclear envelope
Membrane enclosing nucleus
Chromatin
Dna plus associated proteins
Nucleolus
In the nucleus region where ribosomes are formed
Peroxisome
Metablizes waste
Endoplasmic reticulum
Rough: associated with ribosomes
Smooth: makes lipids
Lysosomes
Digests food
Golgi apparatus
Modifies proteins
Mitochondria
Makes energy
Cell wall
Maintains shape
Central vacuole
Plant…maintains pressure against cell wall
Nucleus
Contains chromatin, nuclear envelope, and nucleolus
How big cells?
10 microns
Cell cycle consist of
Interphase and mitotic phase
Interphase?
Cell grows and dna replicated
Mitotic?
Duplicated chromosomes are segregated and distributed into daughter nuclei. Cytoplasm also divided
Prophase
Chromosomes condense become visible and envelope breaks down
Prometaphase
Chromosomes keep condensing. Centromsomes move toward opposite poles. Centresome attach spindle fibers
Metaphase
Centrosomes at opposite poles. Chromosomes lined up in metaphase plate (center). Each sited chromatid attached to spindle fiber
Anaphase
Spindle fibers pull chromatids (now called chromosomes) apart. Cell gets elongated
Telophase
Nuclear envelope develops around both sides of chromosomes. Mitotic spindle breaks down.
Cytokinesis
Not part of mitosis. Animal cleavage furrow seperates. Plant cell plate seperates
DNa helicase
Unzips dna
