Cell Cycles Flashcards
1
Q
Phases of Interphase…
A
Growth 1
- Protein synthesis
- Organelles replicate
- ATP needed
Synthesis
- DNA replication
- ATP
Growth 2
- Cell growth
2
Q
Prophase
A
Chromosomes condense and become visible
Chromosomes consist of two sister chromatids
Centrioles move to opposite poles and form spindle fibres
3
Q
Metaphase
A
Chromosomes align at equator and attach to spindle fibres by centromere
4
Q
Anaphase
A
Centromeres split
Sister chromatids separate and move to opposite poles by contraction
5
Q
Telophase
A
Chromosomes uncoil
Nuclear envelope reforms
6
Q
Cytokinesis
A
Cell membrane pinches inwards and splits into two daughter cells.
7
Q
Budding in Yeast
A
Nucleus divides (mitosis)
Cell swells on one side
Nucleus, organelles and cytoplasm move into bulge
Bulge pinches off and cell wall forms
8
Q
Roles of Mitosis…
A
- Makes cell
- Creates genetically identical cells
- Growth and repair of tissues
- Asexual reproduction
