Q

What are the 3 distinct periods of interphase? What happens during interphase?

A

What are the 3 distinct periods of interphase?

  • G1 - centrioles begin replicating
  • S - DNA is replicated
  • G2 - Final preparations for mitosis are completed and centrioles finish replicating

What happens during interphase?

cell carries out normal metabolic activities and grows

Q

What happens during early prophase? Late prophase?

A

What happens during early prophase?

  • chromatin condenses

What happens during late prophase?

A

What happens during metaphase?

  • chromosomes line up at the midline of cell

Q

What happens during telophase? Cytokinesis?

A

What happens during telophase?

  • nuclear envelope forms around each chromatin, nucleoli reappear, spindle breaks down and disappears

Cytokinesis? (Begins in late anaphase and continues beyond telophase)

  • contractile ring of actin microfilaments forms cleavage furrow and pinches cell apart

Q

Explain

  • diffusion -
  • osmosis -
  • filtration -
A

Explain

  • diffusion - MOVEMENT OF MOLECULES FROM A REGION OF HIGH TO LOW CONCENTRATION
  • osmosis - FLOW OF WATER ACROSS A SELECTIVELY PERMEABLE MEMBRANE (DOWN CONCENTRATION GRADIENT)
  • filtration - WATER AND SOLUTES ARE FORCED THROUGH A MEMBRANE BY HYDROSTATIC (FLUID) PRESSURE

Q

Define

  • hypertonic
  • hypotonic
  • isotonic
  • lysis
  • crenation
A

Define

  • hypertonic - SOLUTION HAS HIGHER SOLUTE CONCENTRATION THAN CELL, WATER MOVES OUT THE CELL AND INTO SOLUTION
  • hypotonic - SOLUTION HAS LOWER SOLUTE CONCENTRATION THAN CELL, WATER MOVES INTO THE CELL CAUSING IT TO EXPAND IN SIZE
  • isotonic - CONCENTRATION OF SOLUTE IS THE SAME INSIDE AND OUTSIDE OF CELL, WATER MOVES ACROSS MEMBRANE IN BOTH DIRECTION MAINTAINING CELL SIZE
  • lysis - CELL FILLS UP, EXPANDS, AND EXPLODES
  • crenation - SHRINKAGE OF CELLS

Q

General characteristics of the following tissues

  • muscular
  • epithelial
  • nervous
  • connective
A

General characteristics of the following tissues

  • muscular - CONTRACTION, PRODUCE BODY MOVEMENTS
  • epithelial - SHEET OF CELLS THAT COVERS BODY SURFACE/LINES BODY CAVITY, PROTECTION, ABSORPTION, FILTRATION, EXCRETION, SECRETION, AND SENSORY RECEPTION
  • nervous - NEUROGLIA SUPPORT CELLS THAT PROTECT, SUPPORT, AND INSULATE MORE DELICATE NEURONS, NUERONS RECIEVE STIMULI (EXCITABILITY) AND GNERATE ELECTRICAL SIGNALS TO SEND ALL OVER BODY (CONDUCTIVITY)
  • connective - FOUND ALL OVER BODY, MOST ABUNDANT, PROTECT, SUPPORT, INSULATE, AND BIND TOGETHER OTHER TISSUES OF BODY
