cell cycle Flashcards
1
Q
cytokinesis
A
cytoplasmic devision following nuclear division resulting in two new daughter cells
2
Q
mitosis
A
type of nuclear division that produces identical daughter cells
3
Q
interphase
A
part of cell cycle were cell is not dividing
4
Q
apoptisis
A
programmed cell death
5
Q
purpose of checkpoint
A
prevent uncontrolled division
detect and repair damage to DNA
cycle cant be reversed
DNA only duplicated once
6
Q
M phase events
A
cell stops growing
nuclear division
cytokinesis
7
Q
events of G0 phase
A
cells may undergo apoptosis, differentiation or senescence
some remain here indefinitely
8
Q
events of G1 phase
A
cell growth transcription of genes organelles duplicate proteins duplicate p53 helps control this
9
Q
events of S phase
A
DNA replication
each chromosome consists of pair of chromatids
10
Q
events of G2 phase
A
the cells grow
