Q

Step 2

A

Enzymes break hydrogen bonds separating DNA into 2

19
Q

Step 3

A

Each 1/2 serves as a template for new complimentary strand

20
Q

Step 4

A

Free nucleotide match to halves by an enzyme called DNA polymerase

21
Q

Step 5

A

2 identical DNAs are formed

22
Q

Problems when cell is too big

A

Difficult to transport nutrients and wastes

23
Q

Initiates cell division

A

The nucleus

24
Longest part of the cell cycle
Interphase 90%
25
3 steps of interphase
G1 S G2
26
Cell grows DNA is chromatin
G1
27
When DNA replication occurs
S
28
Sister chromatids
2 identical lengths of DNA
29
Centromeres
Holds chromatin together
30
When organelles replicate
G2
31
Mitosis
Nuclear division
32
4 phases of mitosis
Prophase metaphase Anaphase telophase
33
Difference in plant and animal cells
Animal- centrioles
34
When spindle forms chromosomes are visible as sister chromatids nuclear membrane disappears
Prophase
35
Metaphase
Chromosomes line up at the middle of the cell
36
Anaphase
Centromeres split and chromosomes travel 2 opposite poles
37
When chromosomes spread out spindle disappears. Nucleotide reappears
Telophase
38
Forms 2 new nuclear membranes
ER
39
Cytokinesis
Division of cytoplasm
40
Cytokinesis in animals
Cytoplasm pinched together
41
Cytokinesis in plants
Cell plate forms that becomes cell wall
42
Protein that regulates timing of cell cycle
Cyclins
43
Cancer
Uncontrollable growth of the cell resulting in tumors
44
Damaged caused by cancer
Damage surrounding tissue. Break loose and to spread to other parts of the body. Disrupt normal cell activities
45
Defective gene
Halts the cell cycle
46
Stem cells
Unspecialized cells that can differentiate
