Interphase
Cells grow, duplicates organelles and copies DNA
Why do stomach cells divide more quickly than liver?
Undergo more wear and tear
Mitosis
Dividing of the nucleus, cytoplasm divides here
Kinases and cyclins
Control cell cycle
Growth Factors
Proteins from outside a cell that stimulates it to divide
Chromosomes
Made up of 2 chromatids,each carrying identical genetic information
Mitosis is used for this in a single-celled organism
Reproduction
Malignant tumors
Cancerous tumors that can cause tumors in other parts of the body
Cancer Cells
Divide uncontrollably
Binary Fission
Doesn't take place in multi cellular organisms
Cells in developing embryo differentiate based on
Location to the embryo
Asexual Mitosis
One parent needed, like a starfish or hydra
Synthesis
Where DNA is copied
G to G movement
Cell must pass critical checkpoint
Gap 1 and Gap 2
Make up interphase
Internal factor that controls cell cycle
Kinase
External Factor
Hormone present in blood acting as a stimulant to the growth of certain cells
Multi-cellualr organisms use mitosis for growth, development and this
Repair
Sexual Reproduction
Requires 2 parents and produced offspring that are genetically unique
Fragmentation
Parent organisms splits into pieces and each piece forms a new organism
Differentiation of cells are influenced by
Where the cells migrate
Totipotent
Capable of developing into a complete organisms or differentiating into any of its cels or tissues
Pluripotent
Growing into any cell type but totipotent
Multipotent
Growing into cells of a closely related cell family
Carcinogen
Substance known to produce or promote cancer
