25
structure of chromosome
nucleosomes are supercoiled, arms are connected at centromere
26
centromere made of
dna and protein
27
unreplicated chromosome
contains one set of dna
28
replicated chromosome
contains two strands of identical dna
29
sister chromatid
each strand of identical dna
30
how much dna does each daughter cell get
one copy
31
what kind of cells does mitosis make
somatic
32
prophase
chromosomes condense, nuclear envelope breaks down, spindle fibers fmr at the poles from the centriole
33
what are spindles made of
microtubules
34
where do spindles attatch
centromere
35
how many chromosomes are in a normal human somatic cell
46
36
metaphase
spindles move chromosomes at the equator, chromosomes align at middle
37
purpose of spindles
pull apart chromosomes or move them
38
anaphase
sister chromatids are pulled apart, unreplicated chromosomes move towards poles, chromosome number doubles
39
how do sister chromatids move towards poles
spindles shorten
40
dna changes from what to what in anaphase
replicated to unreplicated
41
telophase
unreplicated chromosomes move to poles, nuclear envelope reforms, spindles disappear, chromosomes decondense into chromatin, two nuclei form
42
after cytokinesis what are cells like
identical with same dna, size, and half of original cell's cytoplasm
43
cleavage furrow
when the cell membrane is pinched in half by protein threads
44
who does pinching in cleavage furrow
contractile ring
45
what cells do cleavage furrow
animal cells
46
cell plate
when vesicles fuse together and create a cell wall over time
47
what cells use a cell plate
plant
48
write full order of cell cycle
g1, s, g2, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, cytokinesis
49
what regulates the cell throughout the cycle
checkpoints
50
cyclins
types of protein
51
cyclin-dependent kinase
enzyme that binds to cyclin to initate phases
52
checkpoint after g1
checks if cell is big enough (decide if it will decide)
53
checkpoint after s and g2
dna is checked to make sure no mistakes were made when it was copied
54
checkpoint after m
checks if chromatids were separated correctly by spindles
55
g0 is known as
resting phase
56
when does g0 occur
beginning of g1
57
when does a cell enter g0
if it no longer divides
58
how do somatic cells divide if they are normal
controlled manner
59
why do somatic cells divide in a controlled manner
cell cycle and checkpoints
60
when does a cell become cancerous
when it can no longer regulate its rate of cell division
61
what causes cancer cells to divide as rapidly as possible
they ignore checkpoints
62
tumor
a mass of cancerous cells
63
how does a tumor interfere with normal cells
uses up their nutrients and energy
64
malignant tumors
tumors that metastasize
65
metastasis
the spreading of cancer cells to other parts of the body
66
benign tumors
tumors that are enclosed in a capsule and do not spread
67
what tumors are the most dangerous; least?
malignant; benign
68
carcinogens/mutagens
anything that can damage genes and cause cancer
69
what can induce cancer
dangerous chemicals, radiation, some viruses
70
traditional cancer treatments
chemotherapy, radiation, surgery
71
what cells attack cancer cells
killer t-cells
72
apoptosis
programmed cell death
73
when does apoptosis occur
if cell has too much irrepairable damage, outlives usefulness, necessary for organism, hand and feet development
74
syndactyly
the webbing of hands/feet due to incomplete apoptosis
75
what allows cells to carry out specific functions within body
them being specialized
76
are all cells specialized
no
77
stem cells
unspecialized cells
78
types of stem cells
embryonic, perinatal, adult, induced pluripotent
79
blastocyst
a mass of 100-150 unspecialized cells
80
embryonic stem cells
separated cells from a blastocycst that are unspecialized and are pluripotent
81
pluripotent
a cell that gives rise to all cell types
82
if a blastocyst is left in tact it will
become a fetus
83
con of embryonic stem cells
very controversial
84
where are adult stem cells found
mature body tissue, umbillical cords, placenta
85
who has adult stem cells
everyone
86
multipotent
cells that only give rise to a limited type of cells
87
are adult stem cells multi/pluripotent
multipotent
88
what do adult stem cells do
maintain and repair the same kind of tissue in which they are found
89
where are perinatal stem cells found
umbilical cord, amniotic fluid
90
are perinatal stem cells multi/pluripotent
pluripotent
91
induced pluripotent stem cells
any cells can be reprogrammed into embryonic stem cells
92
