Lecture 3 Cell Cycle Flashcards
Interphase 5 steps
G1
G1 Checkpoint
S Phase
G2
G2 Checkpoint
Phragmoplast
Are the cytoplasmic strands that bisect the wall, during interphase creates new wall & new cells
4 Steps of Mitosis
- Prophase
- Metaphase
- Anaphase
- Telophase
Known as nuclear division
Mitosis
Known as cell division
Cytokinesis
What type of division includes a complete set of previously duplicated chromosomes are allocated to the nuclei of each daughter cell?
Mitosis
What type of division includes an entire cell divided into daughter cells?
Cytokinesis
What type of cells are similar in structure to the parent cell?
Daughter cells
G1 Phase (2 total)
- Cell doubles in size
- Organelles, enzymes and other molecules increase in number
Gap 1 - G1 Checkpoint
Arrests the cycle OR initiates S phase
- Commits the cell to another round of cell division (Synthesis)
Synthesis - S Phase (2 total)
- DNA is replicated
- DNA associated proteins (histones) are synthesized
Gap 2 - G2 Phase (2 total)
- Cell division structures assemble
- Chromosomes begin to condense
G2 Checkpoint
Checks chromosome replication & any DNA damage repaired
2 unique interphase events in plant cells
- Nucleus migrates to the center of cell (appears as halfway thru)
- Appearance of a preprophase band during G2 just before the 1st phase of mitosis (appears as fully thru)
3 Parts of Prophase known as
Early, Mid & Late Prophase
Step 1 Prophase
Early: Chromosomes are visible are long threads
Mid: Chromosomes shorten & thicken, forms chromatids attached by centromere
Late: Kinetochores develop on both sides at centromere, nuclear envelope disappears
Step 2 Metaphase
Mitotic spindles arise and attach to Kinetochores
Kinetochore microtubules align the chromosomes at the metaphase plate
Step 3 Anaphase
Separation of sister chromatids at centromere, daughter chromosomes moves to opposite spindle poles
Motor proteins use ATP to pull chromosomes
Step 4 Telophase
ER creates nuclear envelopes
Spindle disassembles & chromosomes become long threads again
Plant cells cell division begin with the formation of ___
Phragmoplast
Osmosis
Diffusion, cells moving randomly to occupy space
Cytokinesis
Physical process of cell division, which divides the cytoplasm of parent cell into 2 daughter cells
Osmotic potential (solute potential)
Tendency of water to move across membrane due to differences of solute concentration
Pressure due to movement of high to low water conc. till equillibrium
What is the primary function of membranes
Movement of water through a selectively permeable membrane
