What is the process of creating two identical molecules of the DNA using original nucleotide strands as templates for the new nucleotide strands?
DNA replication
What is the enzyme that unwinds in separates the two DNA strands of nucleotides?
DNA helicase
What is the enzyme that bonds new strands of nucleotides and the open DNA ladder?
DNA polymerase
What is the stringy form of DNA and as associated proteins called?
Duplicated chromosome
What are the proteins that help DNA coil into chromosomes?
Histones
In mitosis which cell divides to produce more body cells?
Parent cell
In mitosis which cell are created or produced?
Daughter cell
What are the proteins that help the DNA coil into chromosomes?
Histones
What are the two identical strands of DNA coiled up into chromosomes called?
Chromatin
If half of a DNA ladder reads TACCGA, then the other side of the DNA ladder will read...
ATGGCT
The two DNA molecules produced during DNA replication are identical - T or F?
True
DNA regression is necessary before cell division because each new cell needs their own copy of DNA to function - T or F?
True
DNA is replicated four times before cell division starts - T or F?
False
Humans have 46 chromosomes in each body cell - T or F?
True
When a body cell divides the daughter cells will have 23 chromosomes each - T or F?
True
Cancer is uncontrolled cell division in cells - T or F?
True
A tumor is the death of new cells producing a mass of cells - T or F?
False
The cell cycle begins and ends at the start of___
Interphase
A___ tumor has not spread while a___ tumor has spread throughout the body
Benign, malignant
During cytokinesis and plants a___ forms completing cell division.
Cell plate
___ has three phases - G1, S, and G2
Interphase
During___ DNA replication occurs forming sister chromatids
S-phase
Many cells of the body, such as nerve cells do not repeatedly go through the cell cycle rather these cells pause at___ which is where normal growth and maturation occurs in cells.
G1 or G0
In interphase DNA is in___ form and strands___ Individually visible using a microscope.
Chromatin, are not
Two identical strands of DNA forming the duplicated chromosome
Sister chromatids
Fibers that connect chromosomes to the centrioles aids in the division of sister chromatids
Spindle fibers
Anchors for the spindle fibers aids in the division of sister chromatids
Centromere
Location where the spindle attaches to the sister chromatid/duplicated chromosome
Centrioles
Sister chromatids come apart and move away to opposite sides of the cell
Anaphase
Chromatin coils into chromosomes and becomes visible, nuclear envelope dissolves
Prophase
Two new nuclei are visible as nuclear envelopes perform; chromosomes uncoil into chromatin
Telophase
Chromosomes are pulled in lined up in the middle of the cell by the spindle
Metaphase
___ is the final step of cell division. It physically separates the cells cytoplasm into two new cells. In animal cells, the two new cells pinch off from each other.
Cytokinesis
