Recap of Biochem & Zoo Flashcards
Basic structural and functional unit of life.
Cell
Constructive part of metabolism.
Anabolism
Destructive part of metabolism.
Catabolism.
The sum total of the physical and chemical processes in the body.
Metabolism
Sperm & egg cells that divide through meiosis, haploid (n)
Germ cells
All the cells except the gametes, divides through mitosis, diploid (2n)
Somatic cells
Phase before DNA synthesis
G1
DNA synthesis
S phase
After DNA synthesis
G2
Nucleolus appears, condensation of the nuclear materials, and desolution of nuclear membrane
Prophase
Chromosome line up at equatorial plate
Metaphase
Chromatids deattach from chromosomes, and move toward opposite plates
Anaphase
Two daughter cells are formed, nucleolus reappear
Telophase
Division of the nucleus
Karyokinesis
Division of the cytoplasm
Cytokinesis
