Final Flashcards
(26 cards)
G1 Phase
cell grows
S Phase
DNA replicated
G2 Phase
- makes proteins
- prepares for cell division
Prophase
- DNA condenses into chromosomes
- loses nucleolus and nuclear envelope
- centrioles replicated and moves to poles
- mitotic spindle attaches
Metaphase
- spindle fibers attach to centromere
- chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell
Anaphase
chromosomes pulled apart
Telophase
chromosomes start to disassemble
Cytokinesis
- separation of the two cells
- cell pinches / cell plate forms
- nuclear envelope starts to reappear
Cytoplasm
fluid that supports organelles
Nuclear Envelope
controls transport in and out of the nucleus
Nucleolus
starting point for ribosome manufacture
Nucleus
control center of the cell that contains genetic info
Ribosome
puts together proteins
Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
system of tubes where proteins are synthesized
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum
system of tubes used for cell detox
Golgi Apparatus
system of tubes that processes proteins for export/use in the cell
Lysosome
modifies/packages materials into vesicles for export/cell use
Vacuole/Vesicle
general storage container
Mitochondrion
Powerhouse of the cell/converts food to usable energy
Chloroplast
pigments convert light into cell energy
Microtubules
maintains shape of the cell/helps cell and chromosome movement
Mcicrofilament
creates movement in cytoplasm and supports cell
Cell Wall
supports and protects plant cells
Difference Between Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic
Prokaryotic: circular chromosomes no nucleus no organelles divide through binary fission (division) daughter cells are genetically identical Eukaryotic: linear chromosomes have nucleus membrane bound organelles divide through mitosis daughter cells are genetically identical
