what happens in G1 phase of interphase and why
organelles duplicates, cell gets bigger because cytoplasm duplicates, and that causes cell to get bigger
What happens in S phase of interphase
DNA replication-each chromosome is replicated into 2 sister chromatids
What happens in G2 phase of interphase?
Additional growth, more proteins made, and centrioles form. Makes sure organelles are ready for cell divison
Mitosis and cytokne
Why do unicellular organism divide?
They divide for Reproduction called binary fission
why do multicellular organisms divide?
Renewal- cells that die from normal wear and tear
Repair: cells are damaged
Growth: Goes from a single fertilized egg to an organism
What are internal factors for uncontrolled cell growth/cancer?
Spontaneous mutations in DNA during our lifetime
What are external factors for uncontrolled cell growth/cancer?
Cigarette smoking,
poor diet+excericse
UV radiation (tanning)
Carcinogens create
cancer ccells
what are carcinogens
substance capable of causing cancer carcinogen in living tissue
Ex of carciongens
Tobbaco, Radon gas, asbestos, UV rays, alcohol
Cancer cells are
abnormal cells that divide without control due to mutations in DNA
Cancer cells may form
tumors
tumors are
abnormal mass of tissue.
Cancer cells may be killed by
Apoptosis
Apoptosis is
programmed cell death
Malignant tumors are
tumors that grow abnormaly and spread to other places in body. Considered cancerous. BADDDD
Benign tumors are
tumors where cells grow abnormally but stay in place in the body. Better news. Not cancerous
Treatments for tumors may be
screenings
surgery to cut out tumor
radiation to kill cells
chemotherapy to kill actively dividing ells
DNA macromlolecule
nucleic acid
DNA monomer
Nucleotide
Function of DNA
store genetic info
3 parts of the monomer
phosphate, nitrogen bases, 5 carbon sugar
parts of the DNA molecule
Nitrogen containing bases, Backbone
Shape of DNA moelcule
double helix
what is the DNA backbone made up of
phosphate groups and deoxyribose
Between Adenine and Thymine there are how many hydrogen bonds?
2
Between cytosine and guanine how many hydrogen bonds
3
Nitrogen containing bases are
adenine, Thymine, cytosine, guanine
Base pairing rules
A-T, C-G
Chargraff rules are
The Amount of Adneine is equal to the amount of thymine and the amount of cytosine is equal to the amount of guanine
Bases are connected by what bonds
hydrogen bonds
Backbone of DNA is connected by what bonds
covalent bonds
DNA is anti parallel. What does that mean
Means the strands run inopposite directions. The 2 strands of DNA are Anti-Parallel
Which nitrogen bases are double rings?
Adenine and Guanine
Which nitrogen bases are 1 ring?
Cytosine and thymine
Why does DNA replication happen
So each daughter cell receives a complete set of chromosomes during cell division (mitosis/cytokinesis)
Where does DNA replication happen in eukaryotic cells
IN nucleus
When does DNA replication happen?
S phase
What is DNA replication controlled by?
Enzymes
What is the first step of DNA Replication? What is the enzyme that does this?
Helicase (an enzyme) Breaks H-Bonds between DNA bases. A replication fork forms and Primer is added to identify where replication should begin
What is primer?
a short, single-stranded RNA sequence synthesized by the enzyme primase, acting as the essential starting point for DNA polymerase to begin building a new DNA strand
What is the second step of DNA replication?
DNA polymerase( enzyme) adds free nucleotides - only works in the direction of 5’ to 3’. uses original DNA strand as a template. Proofreads and corrects mistakes
What is the third step of DNA replication?
Ligase(enzyme) Seals pieces on the lagging strand together
DNA breaks apart to be copied. True or false
True
What must be transmitted to a new DNA strands during replication to maintain genetic info?
Sequences of bases from existing DNA strands
Why is DNA replication called semi conservative
each new molecules one strand from it is old DNA and the other is New DNA
What does it mean when 2 strands of DNA are complemenatry
Sequence is paired based on their base pairing rules
The order of nitrogen bases determines the type of ______ that is assembled
protein
How many pairs of chromosomes does a human have
23 pairs
a segment of DNA that codes for a protein is called a
gene
How many chromomses in a body
46
What makes up each chromosome
DNA and 1000s of genes
What are the key events of cytokenisis
divison of cytoplasm
Cytoknesis in Animals is
animals: cleavage furrow forms and pinches cell membrane apart
cytokensis in plants is
cell plate forms and grows outward until it fuses inward in the cell wall
what happens when cell cycle isn’t rregulated
uncontrollable cell diviosn that leads to cancer
four main stages of mitosis
Prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase
what happens in prophase
chromatin condenses into visible, X-shaped chromosomes, the nuclear envelope breaks down, the nucleolus disappears, and the mitotic spindle begins to form
.
how many chromomses in the og cell
6
metaphase what happens
Chromosomes line up along the equator (metaphase plate) of the cell, and spindle fibers attach to the centromere of each sister chromatid.
Anaphase what happens
Sister chromatids are pulled apart by the spindle fibers toward opposite poles of the cell, becoming individual chromosomes.
Telophase
Chromosomes arrive at opposite poles, new nuclear envelopes form around each set of chromosomes, and the chromosomes decondense
what happens in interphase
a cell spends most of its life growing, performing normal functions, and replicating its DNA in preparation for mitosis
Leading strand
DNA is replicated in one solid piece
Lagging Strand:
Replicated in small pieces called Okazaki fragments.
What is the enzyme that copies DNA?
DNA Polymerase
