Chapter 6 CELL CYCLE Flashcards
1
Q
Cell Cycle
A
an ordered series of events involving cell growth and cell division that produces two new daughter cells
2
Q
Two Major Phases of Cell Cycle
A
Interphase and Mitotic Phase
3
Q
Interphase
A
Cell Grows and DNA is replicated
4
Q
Mitotic Phase
A
Replicated DNA and cytoplasmic contents are separated and cell divides (Division)
5
Q
3 Stages of interphase
A
G1, S, and G2.
6
Q
First stage of interphase
A
G1 Phase (First Gap)
7
Q
G1 Phase (Interphase)
A
(First Gap) Accumulates building blocks of chromosomal DNA, proteins and energy
8
Q
S Phase (Interphase) Synthesis Phase
A
DNA replication results in two identical copies of each chromosome
(SISTER CHROMATIDS)
9
Q
Centrosome Duplicated
A
Will give rise to Mitotic spindle
10
Q
Centrioles (Centrosome Rods)
A
Organize cell division (not present in plants or fungi)
