Q

Extracellular substances her in gulf by being in enclosed in a membranous vesicle.

A

Endocytosis

20
Q

It is a type of endocytosis which is also called “cell eating”

A

Phagocytosis

21
Q

It is a type of endocytosis which is also called as “cell drinking”.

A

Pinocytosis

22
Q

What are the two major periods of cells?

A

Interphase

Cell division

23
Q

It is a period in which cell grows and cell carries on metabolic processes

A

Interphase

24
Q

It is a period in which cell replicates itself and a function is to produce more cells for growth and repair processes.

A

Cell division

25
Q

It is a process in which genetic material is duplicated and readies cell for division into two cells.

A

🧬 DNA replication

26
Q

What are the nucleotides of DNA?

A

Adenine
Thymine
Cytosine
Guanine

27
Q

Adenine is always paired with what nucleotide?

A

Thymine

28
Q

Guanine is always paired with what nucleotide?

A

Cytosine

29
Q

It is a division of the nucleus that results in the formation of two daughter nuclei

A

Mitosis

30
Q

It is a division of the cytoplasm and against when mitosis is near completion.

A

Cytokinesis

31
Q

It is the first part of cell division in which centrioles migrate to the poles to direct assembly of mitotic spindle fibers.

A

Prophase

32
Q

It is the stage of mitosis when chromosomes are aligned in the center of the cell on the metaphase plate.

A

Metaphase

33
Q

It is the stage of mitosis when chromosomes are pulled apart and toward opposite ends of the cell then cells begins to elongate.

A

Anaphase

34
Q

It is the stage of mitosis when chromosomes uncoil to become chromatin, nuclear envelope reforms around chromatin and spindles breakdown and disappear.

A

Telophase

35
Q

It is a stage of mitosis that begins during late anaphase and completes during telophase.

A

Cytokinesis

36
Q

It is a DNA segment that carries a blueprint for building 1 protein.

A

Gene

37
Q

It is the building materials for cells and as enzymes (biological catalyst).

A

Protein

38
Q

What are the three types of RNA?

A
Transfer RNA (tRNA)
Ribosomal RNA (rRNA)
Messenger RNA (mRNA)
39
Q

It transfers and appropriate amino acids to the ribosome for building the protein.

A

tRNA

40
Q

Helps from the ribosomes where proteins are built

A

rRNA

41
Q

Carries the instructions for building a protein from the nucleus to the ribosome

A

mRNA

42
Q

This is the transfer of information from DNA’s base sequence to the complementary base sequence of mRNA

A

Transcription

43
Q

Three-base sequences on mRNA are called?

A

Codons

44
Q

It is the base sequence of nucleic acid is translated to an amino acid sequence

A

Translation

45
Q

It is the building blocks of proteins?

A

Amino acids
