cell cycle histo lec Flashcards
CELL TYPES based on function
somatic
reproductive
CELL TYPES based on function
- from the body of organisms - maintain life processes
Somatic cell
CELL TYPES based on function
- production of offspring
- animals : gametes
(eggs & sperm)
Reproductive cell
CELL TYPES based on chromosome number
2N - diploid (- specific for each organism )
N - haploid
Cell death purposes (2)
to replace with new cells
and to maintain cell number
cells have just entered a phase of cellular growth
- longest and most variable phase
- active RNA and protein synthesis
G1 -
synthesis of new DNA/chromosome duplication
-beginning of centrosome duplication
S-
cells have double complement of cellular DNA; resting prior to cell division
G2 –
- involved in the chromosome movement
Centriole
- Membrane that separates the nucleus from the cytoplasm
Nuclear Membrane
parts of chromosome
centromere
chromatid kinetochore
- attachment for microtubule of mitotic spindle
Kinetochore
Chromatin thickens into chromosomes
Centriole pairs move to opposite ends of the cell
Spindle fibers begin to form
Nuclear membrane &
nucleoli disintegrates
prophase
Chromosomes align along the metaphase plate
Chromosomes attached to the spindle fiber through kinetochores
Metaphase
Paired chromosomes separate and move to opposite sides of the cell
Separation of centromeres
Separated chromosomes are called daughter chromosomes
Anaphase
