- avoids checkpoints in cell cycle

Q

contact dependent

A

cells will continue to grow until an area is covered, then stop - cancer cells do not have contact dependency

21
Q

apotosis

A

cell suicide - won’t happen in cancer/ bad cases of cancer

22
Q

G0 cells

A

cells that will not regenerate when killed
nerve cells, cardiac, skeletal

23
Q

stage 1 cancer

A

loss of contact dependency
benign tumor at this point
take a sample to see if its self contained

24
Q

stage 2 cancer

A

cells spread and invade neighboring tissue
typically rough edged

25
Q

stage 3 cancer

A

loss of anchorage dependency, can now migrate, has it metatisized?
check lymphatic vessels

26
Q

stage 4 cancer

A

small percentage of cancer cells may survive and establish a new tumor in another part of the body
- based on other people who have had this, estimate for how long you will live

27
Q

chemotheraphy + radiation

A

kill rapidly dividing cells
nausea
hair loss

28
Q

2n 46 chromosomes
n 23 pairs

A

meiosis
two rounds of cell division
1 cell diploid (2n)
–> meiosis –> 4 cells haploid (n) –> sperm + eggs

29
Q

interphase before meiosis

A

pair of homologous chromosomes in diploid parent cell (g1) chromosomes duplicate (s phase) duplicated pair of homologous chromosomes (g2)

30
Q

centromere

A

holds the two sister chromatids together (forms a chromosome)

31
Q

meiosis I

A

homologous chromosomes separate (now they are haploid)

32
Q

meiosis II

A

sister chromatids are split (now there are four singular chromatids)

33
Q

prophase I

A

homologous pairs come together exchange segments (crossing over - chiasima)

34
Q

metaphase I

A

pairs of homologous chromosomes line up

35
Q

anaphase I

A

separate the pairs of homologous chromosomes

36
Q

telophase/cytokinesis I

A

cells divide (two haploid cells form - chromosomes are still doubled)

37
Q

prophase II

A

pairs together
tetrad (two pairs of sisters)

38
Q

metaphase II

A

align

39
Q

anaphase II

A

separate

40
Q

telophase / cytokinesis II

A

creation of four new cells, haploid daughter cells, containing single chromosomes

41
Q

human gametogenesis

A

making sex cells

42
Q

spermatogenesis

A

making sperm
1 –> 2 –> 4 (spermatids)
spermiation - remodel the spermatid to make sperm

43
Q

oogenesis

A

making an egg
excess DNA (polar body)

44
Q

fertilization

A

zygote (finish meiosis II)
- fertilized egg (diploid)

45
Q

mutations of chromosomes

A

nondisjunction - chromosomes do not split up correctly

46
Q

23 homologous pairs

A

1 - 22 autosomes
23rd pair - sex chromosomes

47
Q

down’s syndrome

A

2n +1 (trisomy)

48
Q

cridochat

A

2n - 1 (monosomy)

49
Q

Y chromosome

A

sex determining region of the chromosome

50
Q

SRY gene

A

make a male gene

51
Q

X0

A

Turner’s syndrome
- no secondary sex characteristics
- infertile
- 1 gonad, not specified, no internal reproductive system

52
Q

XXY

A

Klinelfelter’s syndrome
- poor secondary sex characteristics
infertile
