Depending in the cell, it will have a different life span?
TRUE

What are the two types of cell classification?
* Apoptosis * Necrosis
3
New cards
Characteristics of Apoptosis
* The process of a programmed cell death * Requires ATP * Shrinks * Active process * Nuclear condensation
4
New cards
Characteristics of Necrosis
* An unprogrammmed form of cell death * Caused by something * Passive process * Passive process * Cell swells * No ATP required

What is the Cell Cycle?
A cell cycle is a series of events that takes place in a cell as it grows and divides.
6
New cards
Parts of the cell cycle
* Mitosis (10%) * Prophase * Metaphase * Anaphase * Telophase * Interphase (90%) * G1 Phase (Cell Growth) * S Phase (DNA Replication) * G2 Phase (Preparation for mitosis) * G0 Phase * Phase where the cell is resting

What is Mitosis?
Mitosis is the process by which a cell replicates its chromosomes and then segregates them, producing two identical nuclei in preparation for cell division.
8
New cards
What type of cell is used in Mitosis?
DIPLOID CELL
* Contains all the generic material * 46 chromosomes
9
New cards
STAGE 1 OF MITOSIS
* Prophase
* First phase of mitosis * Chromosomes become visible as tightly coiled threadlike structures * Mitotic spindle forms
10
New cards
STAGE 2 OF MITOSIS
* Metaphase
* The chromosomes line up in the middle * The nucleus is no longer visible * Spindle fiber hold the chromosone right in the middle (CENTROMERE)
11
New cards
STAGE 3 OF MITOSIS
* Anaphase
* The chromosomes separate → creating duplicated material on each side * Chromosomes are now found in the polar of the new daughter cells * Centrioles holds the spinde fibers
12
New cards
STAGE 4 OF MITOSIS
* Telophase
* A nuclear membrane forms around the new chromosomes * Spindle fibers are gones * Chromosomes have finished moving to the opposite sides of the cell * Daughter nuclei forms
13
New cards
Cytokinesis
* “STAGE 5”
* The final split-up between the two cells * Division between the two daughter cells * Physically divides into two new cells
14
New cards
Whart are the cell cycle phases?
* G1 phase * S phase * G2 phase * G0 phase
15
New cards
CELL CYCLE
* G1 PHASE
* Growth of the cell * Surface area is way to big * Makes a new set of organelles and proteins
16
New cards
CELL CYCLE
* S PHASE
* Replicates DNA * Copies genetic information * Checking genetic material that both daughter cells will have
17
New cards
CELL CYCLE
* G2 PHASE
* Growth → organelle reproduction * Preparation for cell division * Synthesis of special protein preparation
18
New cards
CELL CYCLE
* G0 PHASE
* Phase where the cell is completely resting * Right after cell division * First or last stage * The time when the cell is neither dividing nor preparing to divide
\
EXAMPLES:
* Heart and neuron cells stay at this phase

What are Cyclins?
Speacialized proteins that are responsible for the progression of the cell cycle
* Associated with the cycle of cell division * Certain processes of mitosis
