Chapter 4 Flashcards
Phase where chromosomes line up in the center of the cell
Metaphase
Phase where the nucleus disappears and the spindle forms
Prophase
Phase of the cell cycle where the cell is not dividing
Interphase
Phase where the cytoplasm and organelles are divided ; the cell membrane splits to form two complete new cells.
Cytokinesis
Phase where chromosomes go to the far ends of the cell
Telophase
Phase of the cell cycle where cell division occurs ; genetic material is sorted and divided up
Mitosis
Phase where chromosomes begin to separate from each other
Anaphase
Cystic fibrosis is a contagious disease
False
Patients with cystic fibrosis typically live a long life
False
Benign tumors commonly spread to other tissues through the blood
False, malignant
Cystic fibrosis is characterized by a deficiency of mucus in the respiratory system
False

False
Viruses reproduce by hijacking host cells
True
If a patient requests antibiotics it is always a good idea to provide them
False
Giardia is an example of fungus
False
Sphere shaped bacteria arranged in chains are called streptococci
True
Some bacteria cause illness because they release chemicals called toxins
True
Familial hypercholesterolimia is caused by a missing enzyme in the lysosomes
False
Energy is required to complete passive transport
False
Chromosomes are topically found in the Golgi apparatus
False
All substances pass easily through the cell membrane
False
Cells use exocytosis to swallow up solid particles like bacteria
False
These substances act like carrier molecules in the facilitation of chemical reactions
Enzymes
Which of the following is not an example of active transport A)exocytosis B)phagocytosis C)diffusion D)pinocytosis
Diffusion
Cells convert glucose into ATP in a process called
Cellular respiration
Explain why breathing is necessary for cellular respiration
Breathing provides oxygen needed for cellular respiration
Two ways cystic fibrosis can be diagnosed
Sweat testing and genetic testing
Why might it be a bad idea for someone for PKU to drink diet soda
They are unable to process a molecule found there which can cause serious health problems
Which kind of diabetes is considered an autoimmune disease
One
Diabetes related to obesity and poor diet
Two
Diabetes treated with insulin shots
One
Which type of diabetes can sometimes be reversible
Two
Organelle paralyzed by tobacco smoke and how does it relate to respiratory infection
Cilia, can’t get rid of mucous so the risk rises
