development for what type of organisms?
Multicellular organisms
describes a fertilized egg to an individual
growth
describes how our body heals itself from wounds and cuts
renewal and repair
“in between cell division”
interphase
Long growth period between cell divisions
interphase
organelle factory; development of organelles
g1 (first gap)
how long does g1 take?
5-6 hrs
creation of genetic material (DNA or RNA)
synthesis
how long does the s phase or synthesis take
10-12 hrs
double-checker
preparation for cell division
g2
how long does g2 take?
4-6 hrs
at this point, the cells do not
replenish themselves.
g0
bone cells are called?
osteocytes
—– are temporarily on g0 and will resume during puberty for both genders
sex cells
cytoplasm division or two
daughter cells are formed
cytokinesis
all cells divide at the same rate
true or false
false
not all cells divide at the same rate
several key “checkpoints” at each phase of the cell cycle.
Cell Regulation
Generates new diploid cells, two sets of chromosomes
Mitosis
mitosis happens in — reproduction
asexual reproduction
daughter cells offspring are genetically identical to the parent
cell
mitosis
single celled organisms
binary fission
