The Cell Cycle Flashcards
1
Q
process by which cell replicate and make two new cells
A
cell cycle
2
Q
important task of cell cycle
A
- it must grow
- it must physically split into two new daughter cells
- it must copy its genetic material
3
Q
importance of the cell
A
- it is essential in forming new plants
- it makes new life possible
- it is vital in the process of healing and tissue repair
4
Q
two major phases of cell cycle
A
- interphase
- mitotic phase
5
Q
non-dividing stage
A
interphase
6
Q
interphase
A
- first gap (G1) Phase
- synthesis of DNA (S Phase)
- second gap (G2) Phase
- gap zero (G0) Phase
7
Q
cell growth
metabolically active
period of growth
A
G1 Phase
8
Q
DNA replication
replicates a chromatin into a full chromosome
A
S Phase
9
Q
where spindle fiber attached
sister chromatid attached through this
A
centromeres
10
Q
- synthesizes proteins necessary for chromosomal manipulation
- duplication of organelles
A
G2 Phase
11
Q
“resting phase”
not be able to reproduce
A
G0 Phase

Q
cell division
dividing stage
A
mitotic phase
