Q

Events of mitosis: ____________

Centrioles direct assembly of a mitotic spindle and the

Nuclear envelope and nucleoli have broken down

A

Prophase

19
Q

Events of mitosis: ____________

Chromosomes are aligned in the center of the cell on the metaphase plate

Straight line of chromosomes is now seen

A

Metaphase

20
Q

Events of mitosis: ____________

Centromere splits
Chromatids move slowly apart, and toward the opposite end of the cell
It is over when the chromosome stopped moving

A

Anaphase

21
Q

It is reverse of prophase

A

Telophase

22
Q

Events of mitosis: ____________

Chromosomes uncoil to become chromatin

Spindles breakdown and disappear

Nuclear envelope reforms around chromatin

Nuclei appear in each of the daughter nuclei

A

Telophase

23
Q

is division of the cytoplasm

A

Cytokinesis

24
Q

Begins during late anaphase and completes during telophase

A

Cytokinesis

25
Q

A _________________ (contractile ring of microfilaments) forms to pinch the cells into two parts

A

Cytokinesis

26
Q

In this phase to daughter cells exist

A

Cytokinesis

27
Q

Cytoplasm is common in the

A

Liver and skeletal muscle

28
Q

DNA serves as a blueprint for making proteins

A

Protein synthesis

29
Q

DNA segment that carries a blueprint for building one protein or polypeptide chain

A

Gene

30
Q

1) Proteins are the building materials for cells

2) proteins can add as enzymes (biological catalyst)

A

1) fibrous (structural) proteins

2) globular (functional) proteins

31
Q

Most ribosomes, the manufacturing sites of proteins are located in the ____________

A

Cytoplasm

32
Q

Both the decoder and Messenger functions of DNA are carried out by ____________

A

Ribonucleic acid RNA

33
Q

RNA is ____________

RNA contains (2)

A

Single- stranded

1) Ribose sugar

2) uracil

34
Q

Three varieties of RNA

1) transfers appropriate amino acids to the ribosome for building the protein

2) carries the instructions for building a protein from the nucleus to the ribosome

3) Helps form the ribosomes where proteins are built

A

1) Transfer RNA

2) messenger RNA

3) ribosomal RNA

35
Q

Protein synthesis involves two major phases

A

1) transcription
2) translation

36
Q

Transfer of information from the DNAs base sequence to the complimentary base sequence of MRNA

A

Transcription

37
Q

____________ is the template for transcription: ____________ is the product

A

DNA
mRNA

38
Q

Base sequence of nucleic acid is translated to an amino acids

A

Translation

39
Q

Occurs in the cytoplasm and involves three major varieties of RNA

A

Translation

40
Q

Is steps for translations where mRNA leaves nucleus and attaches the ribosomes and translations begins

A

Step 2

41
Q

In this step release, the RNA re-enters the cytoplasmic pool ready to be recharged with new amino acid

A

Step 5

42
Q

Incoming tRNA recognizes COMPLIMENTARY MRNA codon calling for its amino acid by temporarily binding its anticodon to the codon

A

Step 3

43
Q

As the ribosomes moves along, the mRNA, a new amino acid is added to the growing protein chain

A

Step 4

44
Q

Cells divide for

A

1) repair
2) growth
3) maintenance
