Cells 2 (The Cell Cycle & Cancer) Flashcards
Growth and repair/replace cells
Mitosis’ purpose
How many rounds of cell division is through Mitosis
One
How many identical daughter cells are made through mitosis?
Two
How many chromosomes does the daughter cells have?
46 each resulting in a total of 92 chromosomes
Period of cell growth and metabolic activities
Interphase
Phase in Interphase that produces proteins and grows
G1
Phase in Interphase that replicates DNA
S (synthesis) phase
Phase in Interphase that grows and prepares for cellular division
G2
Phase in in Interphase that is the resting phase where cells stop dividing and exit the cell cycle
G0
Goal of Mitosis
Exact and equal division of replicated dna
The phase where chromosomes condense, the nuclear envelope break up and microtubule spindle forms
Prophase
