16
Q

What happens in G1 phase?

A

synthesis of enzymes for S phase

17
Q

What happens in S phase?

A

DNA synthesis
- each chromosome has 2 chromatids
-DNA Doubles
Histone made

18
Q

What happens in G2 phase?

A

microtubules made

protein synthesis stops

19
Q

What is mitosis phase?

20
Q

What is prophase?

A

chromatin condense into chromosome

21
Q

What is metaphase?

A

chromosome align in centre

22
Q

What is anaphase?

A

Sister chromatids pulled apart to mitotic spindle

Division of membrane

23
Q

What is Telophase?

A

nuclear envelope reforms and 2 daughter cells

24
Q

Why is Virus a retrovirus?

25
How does virus make DNA copy of its RNA genome?
reverse transcriptase
26
What are prions?
small protein infections- resist anything that would damage nucleic acids
27
What is an example of a prion disease?
Scrapie
28
How does prions cause disease?
conformational change in shape of prion protein so causes proteins nearby to change shape
29
What can prions cause?
Holes in brain so spongiform encephalopathesis
