32
Q

Factors of cell permeability

A

33
Q

CELL THEORY

A
  • Cells are the basic unit of life
    -All organisms are made of one or more cells
34
Q

INTERPHASE

A

-Portion of the cell cycle between cellular division
-LONGEST PHASE IN CELL CYCLE!!!!!!!
-Includes usual cell functions (respiration, enzyme production, etc.)

35
Q

How do we get new cells?

A

Cellular Reproduction/ Cell Division

36
Q

Why do cells reproduce/divide

A
  • Get too large
    -Repair damaged cells
    -Growth of a multicellular organism
    -Unicellular reproduction= asexual reproduction
37
Q

The two parts of Cell Division

A

-Mitosis
-Cytokinesis

38
Q

MITOSIS

A

-Series of phases in which the nucleus divides into 2 nuclei

39
Q

CYTOKINESIS

A

-Cytoplasm of the cell and its organelles separate into two cells called Daughter Cells

40
Q

Prophase

A

-Chromosomes condense
-Nucleolus and Nuclear envelope disappear
-Microtubules and spindle fibers assemble

41
Q

What do spindle fibers assist with?

A

-Cellular reproduction

42
Q

Metaphase

A
  • Chromosomes align at the center of the cell by the spindle fibers attached to the centromeres
43
Q

Anaphase

A

-Sister Chromatids (2 copies of chromosomes) separate at centromere and migrate towards the ends of the cell

44
Q

Telophase

A

-New nuclei form around chromosomes

45
Q

ORDER OF MITOSIS PHASES

A
  1. Interphase
  2. Prophase
  3. Metaphase
  4. Anaphase
  5. Telophase
  6. Cytokinses
46
Q

Animal cell cytokinesis

A
  • Groove forms in the middle of the cell (cleavage furrow), deepens until it pinches into two new cells
47
Q

Plant cell cytokinesis

A

-Materials for new cells walls and membranes gather and fuse in the middle (equator) and fuse between the two nuclei

48
Q

What is the relationship between tumors and cell cycle signals?

A

-Dont head cell cycle signals = uncontrolled cell growth = TUMORS

49
Q

When do cells know when to stop?

A
  • Density Dependent inhibition (run out of room)
50
Q

When do cells know when to reproduce

A

-External/Internal signals
-Growth factors (protein chemicals)

51
Q

Cells that dont stop growing from bumps/lumps

A

-BENIGN TUMORS
-Localized growth of cells
-Not deadly

A

-Chromosomes replicate forming sister chromosomes which attach at the centromere

What happens in G2 phase of interphase

A

Preparation for cellular respiration

59
Q

What happens after G1 cells go through S Phase

A

DNA REPLICATION

60
Q

What happens in DNA replication

A

-DNA makes a copy of itself
-Forms a sister chromatin

61
Q

Is DNA parallel or anti-parallel?

A

Anti-parallel

62
Q

1st step of DNA replication

A
  1. DNA Helicase UNZIPS hydrogen bonds between nitrogenous bases
63
Q

2nd step of DNA replication

A
  1. DNA unzips at replication bubbles
64
Q

3rd step of DNA replication

A
  1. DNA polymerase (THE BUILDER) matches template strand with free-floating nucleotides
    -Works 5 prime to 3 prime
    -Forms leading/lagging strand
65
Q

4th step of DNA replication

A

-DNA Ligase (THE GLUE) links pieces together forming a single DNA strand

66
Q

5th step of DNA replication

A
  1. Complimentary strands form to the template
67
Q

Semi- conservative model of DNA replication

A
  • When the double helix replicates, each of the daughter molecules will have one old strand and one newly created strand
68
Q

What is Invagintion?

A

-Infolding of membrane that led to single membrane organelle

69
Q

What is the cell membrane made up of?

A

-Phospholipid and protein channel

70
