Cell cycle and Mitosis Flashcards
What controls the cell cycle
cyclin
reasons for mitosis
growth
repair
asexual reproduction
sections of interphase
G1
G1 checkpoint
S Phase
G2
G2 checkpoint
G1
Gap 1
cell does what it’s supposed to
S Phase
DNA synthesis
chromosomes copy but stay together
G2
Gap 2
Cell does normal functions
continues to grow
Kinetochore
where spindles attach during cell division
stages of mitosis
prophase
prometaphase
metaphase
anaphase
telophase
Prophase
Chromatin/chromosomes condense
Prometaphase
membrane dissolves
microtubules invade
microtubules attach to kinetochore
Metaphase
chromosomes align at the metaphase plate
anaphase (2 theories)
chromosomes pull apart
-centrosomes pull apart
-spindles shorten
Telophase
Chromosomes are surrounded by nuclear membrane
spindle disassembles
What do centrosomes do in mitosis
-made of two centrioles at right angles of each other
-duplicates
-Spindles originate from
Cytokinesis in animal cells
furrow develops between two cells
furrow deepens like a drawstring until they separate
