Fermentation
After Glycolysis, if there is not enough oxygen, pyruvate enters the _ process
ethanol, CO2, lactic acid
what are 3 products of fermentation?
Lactic Acid
causes sore muscles, also can be found in yogurt, kimchi or saurkraut
Photosynthesis
_ is fundamental as it provides food that is the base of the entire food chain
Photosynthesis
Due to _, we have oxygen in our atmosphere
plants, some protists, cyanobacteria
Who uses photosynthesis?
Autotrophs
Make their own food (producer level)
Hetertrophs
Organisms that eat other organisms for food
Chloroplasts
Photosynthesis happens in the _
outer membrane, inner membrane, stroma, granum, thylakoid
5 parts of cholorplast
Chlorophyll
pigment molecule within the cholorplast that captures light energy
blue and red
Chlorophyll captures _ and _ wavelengths of light
green
Chlorophyll reflects _ wavelengths
proteins on thylakoid membrane
Complete the sentence: Chlorophyll is in the _ _ _ _
Carbon Cycle
movement of CO2 in and out of the atmosphere via photosynthesis and respiration
Carbon Fixation
Taking up of CO2 by plants
development, grown of organism, repairing damage and cell replacement
What are the 4 reasons for cell division?
Mitosis
division of somatic cells that produces an EXACT copy of the genome(DNA)
somatic
_ cells: body cells (everything but gamates)
germ
_ cells: cells that produce gametes (sperm and egg)
Meiosis
division of germ cells to make gametes. These are genetically different from initial germ cells In
Different
In Meiosis, the ending germ cells are _ from the original
Same
In Mitosis, somatic cells are _ from the original
cancer
uncontrolled cell division
chromosome
wrapped up DNA that is visible in the nucleus
Histone proteins
In Chromosomes, the DNA is wrapped around _ _
46 , 23
Humans have a total of _ chromosomes. _ from each parent
Karyotype
Picture of an individuals chromosomes arranged by size
1-22
#_ are autosomes
23
#_ are sex chromosomes
Diploid
two copes of each chromosomes. Somatic Cells, one paternal and one maternal
2n
Another way to write a diploid
haploid
one copy of each chromosome, Gametes
homologous chromosome
pair of one paternal and one maternal chromosome with genes that code fro a particular trait, but may be different versions of that gene
e.g. hair color, eye color
Sister Chromatids
(after DNA replication) exact copies of a chromosome, identical genes
Sister chromatids
_ _ will separate and each go into a newly divided cell
centromere
Sister chromatids are bound in the _ region
Cohesion Proteins
holds sister chromatids together, think “molecular glue”
Kinetochore
Point where sister chromatids are pulled apart
Microtubules
_ works as pulling ropes to serperate sister chromatids
cell cycle
life of the cell from the time it divides until it divides again
Interphase and Mitotic phase
Cell cycle is made of what two phases
Interphase
During _, the cell is doing its cell job, making protiens
G1
primary growth phase of cell, Interphase
S
DNA replication, centrosomes duplicate, Interphase
G2
Organelles replicate , interphase
G1, S, G2
3 parts of Interphase
Chromatin
DNA is uncondensed as _
Mitosis and Cytokinesis
Mitotic (M) phase is made of what 2 parts?
prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase
What are the 5 parts of Mitosis?
PPMAT
What is the abbreviation for the 5 steps of Mitosis
Mitosis
During the Mitotic phase, _ is the division of the nucleus
cytokinesis
division of cytoplasm
Centrosomes
Situate themselves at the poles of the cell, with spindles that eventually pull apart the sister chromatids
Prophase
In this phase, chromatin starts to condense and the nuclear envelope begins to break down
Prometaphase
In this phase, chromatin fully condenses into chromosomes. Microtubules attach to chromosomes at kinetochore. Each sister chromatid connects to opposite pole
Metaphase
In this phase, chromosomes align along the equator (metaphase plate) of the cellWha
Metaphase plate
Another name for the equator of the cell
Anaphase
In this phase, microtubules pull each sister chromatid to opposite sides of the cell
Telophase
In this phase, chromosomes are decondensed back into chromatin. 2 serperate nuclei form
Cytokinesis, late telophase
During this second part of the Mitotic phase, cell divides into two (division of cytoplasm). Begins in _ _
cleavage furrow
When animal cells divide, they form a _ _
Cell plate
When plant cells form, a _ _ is formed from vessicles
G0
_ Phase: non-dividing stage - either temporary or permanent
mature cardiac or nerve cells
what two types of cells are included in the G0 phase
G1/S, G2/M, and M
What are the 3 checkpoints of the cell cycle
G1/S
this checkpoint checks for DNA damage, mutations and mistakes. It will either try to fix the problem or signal for cell death
P53
The protein that is in charge of G1/S checkpoint
Apoptosis
Cell death. Called for in G1/S checkpoint if mistake in DNA cannot be fixed
tumor supressor
P53 protein is also called the _ _ protein
P53
_ gene is most often mutated in cancers
G2/M
In this checkpoint, the cell checks that DNA replication is complete. Checks for centrosome replication and makes sure that cell is ready to divide
M
In this checkpoint, the cell makes sure that sister chromatids are correctly attached at microtubules, one to each pole
Spindle
Another name for the M checkpoint is the _ checkpoint. Happens at the late metaphase of mitosis
Cancer
disease of uncontrolled cell division
cells divide indefinitely, failure of cell control, no anchorage dependency, no density dependency
4 aspects of cancer (In terms of cell fuction)
anchorage dependency
term used to say that cell doesn’t stay in place
density dependency
term used to say that cells grow over each other and out of where they are supposed to be
Mutation
In genes that regulate the cell cycle- that inhibit or stimulate cell division
Carcinogen
cancer-causing mutations in DNA
Radiation, toxins, pollution, some viruses
4 groups of known carcinogens
Accumulation
the _ of mutations leads to cancer
