1
New cards

what happens in G1 phase of interphase and why

organelles duplicates, cell gets bigger because cytoplasm duplicates, and that causes cell to get bigger

2
New cards

What happens in S phase of interphase

DNA replication-each chromosome is replicated into 2 sister chromatids

3
New cards

What happens in G2 phase of interphase?

Additional growth, more proteins made, and centrioles form. Makes sure organelles are ready for cell divison

4
New cards

Mitosis and cytokne

5
New cards

Why do unicellular organism divide?

They divide for Reproduction called binary fission

6
New cards

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

7
New cards

What are internal factors for uncontrolled cell growth/cancer?

Spontaneous mutations in DNA during our lifetime

8
New cards

What are external factors for uncontrolled cell growth/cancer?

Cigarette smoking,

poor diet+excericse

UV radiation (tanning)

9
New cards

Carcinogens create

cancer ccells

10
New cards

what are carcinogens

substance capable of causing cancer carcinogen in living tissue

11
New cards

Ex of carciongens

Tobbaco, Radon gas, asbestos, UV rays, alcohol

12
New cards

Cancer cells are

abnormal cells that divide without control due to mutations in DNA

13
New cards

Cancer cells may form

tumors

14
New cards

tumors are

abnormal mass of tissue.

15
New cards

Cancer cells may be killed by

Apoptosis

16
New cards

Apoptosis is

programmed cell death

17
New cards

Malignant tumors are

tumors that grow abnormaly and spread to other places in body. Considered cancerous. BADDDD

18
New cards

Benign tumors are

tumors where cells grow abnormally but stay in place in the body. Better news. Not cancerous

19
New cards

Treatments for tumors may be

screenings

surgery to cut out tumor

radiation to kill cells

chemotherapy to kill actively dividing ells

20
New cards

DNA macromlolecule

nucleic acid

21
New cards

DNA monomer

Nucleotide

22
New cards

Function of DNA

store genetic info

23
New cards

3 parts of the monomer

phosphate, nitrogen bases, 5 carbon sugar

24
New cards

parts of the DNA molecule

Nitrogen containing bases, Backbone

25
New cards

Shape of DNA moelcule

double helix

26
New cards

what is the DNA backbone made up of

phosphate groups and deoxyribose

27
New cards

Between Adenine and Thymine there are how many hydrogen bonds?

2

28
New cards

Between cytosine and guanine how many hydrogen bonds

3

29
New cards

Nitrogen containing bases are

adenine, Thymine, cytosine, guanine

30
New cards

Base pairing rules

A-T, C-G

31
New cards

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

32
New cards

Bases are connected by what bonds

hydrogen bonds

33
New cards

Backbone of DNA is connected by what bonds

covalent bonds

34
New cards

DNA is anti parallel. What does that mean

Means the strands run inopposite directions. The 2 strands of DNA are Anti-Parallel

35
New cards

Which nitrogen bases are double rings?

Adenine and Guanine

36
New cards

Which nitrogen bases are 1 ring?

Cytosine and thymine

37
New cards

Why does DNA replication happen

So each daughter cell receives  a complete set of chromosomes during cell division (mitosis/cytokinesis)

38
New cards

Where does DNA replication happen in eukaryotic cells

IN nucleus

39
New cards

When does DNA replication happen?

S phase

40
New cards

What is DNA replication controlled by?

Enzymes

41
New cards

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

42
New cards

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

43
New cards

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

44
New cards

What is the third step of DNA replication?

Ligase(enzyme) Seals pieces on the lagging strand together

45
New cards

DNA breaks apart to be copied. True or false

True

46
New cards

What must be transmitted to a new DNA strands during replication to maintain genetic info?

Sequences of bases from existing DNA strands

47
New cards

Why is DNA replication called semi conservative

each new molecules one strand from it is old DNA and the other is New DNA

48
New cards

What does it mean when 2 strands of DNA are complemenatry

Sequence is paired based on their base pairing rules

49
New cards

The order of nitrogen bases determines the type of ______ that is assembled

protein

50
New cards

How many pairs of chromosomes does a human have

23 pairs

51
New cards

a segment of DNA that codes for a protein is called a

gene

52
New cards

How many chromomses in a body

46

53
New cards

What makes up each chromosome

DNA and 1000s of genes

54
New cards

What are the key events of cytokenisis

divison of cytoplasm

55
New cards

Cytoknesis in Animals is

animals: cleavage furrow forms and pinches cell membrane apart

56
New cards

cytokensis in plants is

cell plate forms and grows outward until it fuses inward in the cell wall

57
New cards

what happens when cell cycle isn’t rregulated

uncontrollable cell diviosn that leads to cancer

58
New cards

four main stages of mitosis

Prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase

59
New cards

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

.

60
New cards

how many chromomses in the og cell

6

61
New cards

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.

62
New cards

Anaphase what happens

Sister chromatids are pulled apart by the spindle fibers toward opposite poles of the cell, becoming individual chromosomes.

63
New cards

Telophase

Chromosomes arrive at opposite poles, new nuclear envelopes form around each set of chromosomes, and the chromosomes decondense

64
New cards

what happens in interphase

a cell spends most of its life growing, performing normal functions, and replicating its DNA in preparation for mitosis

65
New cards

Leading strand

  • DNA is replicated in one solid piece

66
New cards

Lagging Strand:

  • Replicated  in small pieces called Okazaki fragments.

67
New cards
