Q

mitotic spindles

A

moves chromosomes around cell

21
Q

hydrophilic head

A

likes water

22
Q

ribosomes

A

involved in synthesizing protein from amino acids

23
Q

centrioles

A

involved in cellular dividison/ occurs in pairs

24
Q

metaphase

A

spindle moves to center of cell// chromosome pairs align along center

25
Q

animal cells during telophase

A

membrane pinches

26
Q

True/False: mitochondria does AEROBIC RESPIRATION

A

TRUE

27
Q

what is the pneumonic to remember lysosomes

A

lets play cards: lipid, protein, carbohydrates

28
Q

glycolipids

A

RECOGNIZE other cells of organism

29
Q

nuclear envelope

A

enclose nucleus

30
Q

Haploid Cell

A

1/2 genetic material as parent cell

31
Q

Meiosis creates different genetic coding True/False

A

TRUE

32
Q

what is the pneumonic to remember vacuoles

A

stop doing weed: storage, digestion, waste removal

33
Q

cytoskeleton

A

consists of microtubules, SHAPE/SUPPORT cell

34
Q

vacuoles

A

used for STORAGE, DIGESTION, WASTE removal

35
Q

telophase

A

spindle disintegrates// chromosomes become chromatin

36
Q

cell membrane

A

acts as a barrier. Determines what can ENTER/EXIT cell

37
Q

prophase

A

chromatin thickens, nuclear membrane disintegrates// centrioles move to opposite sides of cells// mitotic spindle forms

38
Q

True/False: Meiosis goes through mitosis 2 times

A

TRUE

39
Q

True/False: Mitochondria doesn’t have its own DNA

A

FALSE

40
Q

where is mitochondria’s DNA located?

A

inner membrane

41
Q

Interphase

A

prepares for division by REPLICATING genetic/ cytoplasmic material

42
Q

True/False: mitosis creates different genetic cells

A

False: mitosis creates EXACT COPIES of the parent cell

43
Q

flagella

A

help with CELLULAR MOVEMENT

44
Q

chromosomes

A

stores DNA

45
Q

smooth endoplasmic reticulum (Smooth ER)

A

transport system of cell that has NO RIBOSOMES

46
Q

where do chemical reactions occur in mitochondria

A

cristae

47
Q

anaphase

A

chromsomes pull apart// becoming daughter chromosomes

48
Q

centrosome

A

involved in mitosis/ cell cycle

49
Q

nucleus

A

responsible for passing genetic traits between generation
