Chapter 19.1 Flashcards
What are the parts of interphase
G1 Phase, S phase, G2 Phase
what happens in G1 Phase
cell expansion
what happens in S phase
DNA synthesis
what happens in G2 phase
Structures for mitosis are created
What are the parts of M Phase
mitosis and cytokinesis
cytokinesis
division of cell
mitosis
division of nucleus
what must happen before you can make a new cell (regarding DNA)
must copy the DNA
what are the basic steps of DNA replication
H bonds are broken and each strand acts as a template to create a new complimentary strand
semi-conservation replication
each new DNA helix is now half old and half new DNA
Theta replication
one method of replication of circular DNA
steps of theta replication
begins at single origin, creates two replication forks and proceeds bi-directionally around the circle
replicons
multiple replication units
seen in eukaryotic DNA
Origin Recognition Complex (ORC)
binds to a replication origin
minichromosome maintenance complex (MCM Complex)
contains enzymes (DNA helicases) that can unzip DNA
what does it mean for DNA to be licensed
it is ready to be duplicated
