UNIT 2 ANATOMY TEST Flashcards
RNA SYNTHESIS/PROTIEN SYNTHESIS
MAKING AMINO ACID PROTEIN CHAINS/ POLYPEPTIDES
TRANSCRIPTION
GENE–>MRNA
RNA POLYMERASE
UNZIPS THE DNA, COPIES THE GENES, EDITS THE COPY
TRANSLATION
READING A GENE AND MAKING A PROTIEN (MRNA+RIBOSOMES+TRNA)
INTERPHASE
G1 (RNA SYNTHESIS), S(COPY OF DNA),G2
MITOTIC PHASE
PROPAHSE METAPHASE ANAPHASE TELOPHASE, CYTOKENESIS
MITOSIS
DIPLOID/SOMATIC CELLS, 46 INDIVIDUAL CHROMOSOMES OR 23 PAIRS, GENETICALLY IDENTICAL
MEIOSIS
GAMETES, 23 INDIVIDUAL, NON IDENTICAL GENETICALLYS
DNA REPLICATION (WHY? WHERE? HOW?)
- TO KEEP UP WITH THE DYING RATE OF CELLS 2.S PHASE 3. DNA–>DNA (WITH DNA POLYMERASE/HELICASE)
AGING FACTORS
GENES, LIFESTYLE, TELOMERE SHORTENING ON DNA, AUTOIMMUNE DISEASE
CANCER
A GROUP OF DISEASES CHARACTERIZED BY UNCONTROLLED OR ABNORMAL GROWTH OF CELLS
TUMOR (NEOPLASM)
SWELLING OR MASS CELLS
BENIGN TUMOR
DOES NOT METASTASIZE
MALIGNANT TUMOR
A TUMOR THAT METASTASIZES
CARCINOGINS
CAUSES CANCER BY THE MUTATIONS IN DNA
