Cell Structure And Function (2)

Question 0

Interphase

Answer 0

DNA is replicated; cell grows and develops.

Question 1

Prophase

Answer 1

Nucleoli disappears; mitotic spindle forms in between pairs of centrioles.

Question 2

Carbohydrates

Answer 2

Source of energy; contains carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen; sugars and starches.

Question 3

Metaphase

Answer 3

Chromatids align in the middle of the cell and are attached to a spindle structure that stretches to opposite ends of the cell.

Question 4

Proteins

Answer 4

Composed of amino acids; large and complex; can be a hormone or enzyme.

Question 5

Lipids

Answer 5

Source of energy; insoluble in water; includes fats, wax, and oils.

Question 6

Telophase

Answer 6

Nuclear envelopes are formed around daughter cells nuclei; cell devision is completed in this stage.

Question 7

Anaphase

Answer 7

Chromatids are separated into identical sets of chromosomes and begin moving towards opposite ends of the parent cell.

Question 8

Cytokinesis

Answer 8

Division of the parent cells cytoplasm; occurs in conjunction with telophase.

Question 9

Cell Cycle

Answer 9

Sequence of phases consisting of cell growth and division; important to an organisms growth and development.

Question 10

DNA Replication

Answer 10

Transforms one strand of Nucleic acid into two sets so that each set may be passed on to daughter cells in cell division.

Question 11

Mitosis

Answer 11

Phase durning the cell cycle in which the nucleus is divides resulting identical daughter cells.

Question 12

Chromosome

Answer 12

Contains genetic information in the form of DNA.
