Q

forms the inner lining of cardiovascular system and lymphatic system structures. These cells make up the inner layer of blood vessels.

A

ENDOTHELIAL CELLS

23
Q

neurons are the basic unit of the nervous system. __ send signals among the brain, spinal cord, and other body organs via nerve impulses.

24
Q

reproductive cells are also called gametes.

25
results from the development of abnormal properties in normal cells that enable them to divide uncontrollably and spread to other locations.
CANCER CELLS
26
results in the production of daughter cells containing half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell.
MEIOSIS
27
Cell Cycle
MITOSIS MEIOSIS
28
a type of cell division in which the nucleus of the cell divides into two nuclei with identical genetic material.
MITOSIS
29
Major events during the interphase:
G1 (Growth 1) Phase S (Synthesis) Phase G2 (Growth 2) Phase
30
cell cycle at this stage is still young and it undergoes rapid growth
G1 (Growth 1) Phase
31
The DNA, the main composition of the chromosomes inside the nucleus of the cell, doubles at this stage by a process called replication
S (Synthesis) Phase
32
Preparations for cell division
G2 (Growth 2) Phase
33
4 Stages of Mitosis
PROPHASE METAPHASE ANAPHASE TELOPHASE
34
long and thread-like chromatids during the interphase start to coil at this stage and become visible under a compound microscope as individual chromosomes.
PROPHASE
35
Chromosomes move and align themselves at the center of the cell called *__ plate*.
METAPHASE
36
sister chromatids of each chromosome divide and move toward opposite poles due to the shortening of the spindle fibers.
ANAPHASE
37
chromatids (now called chromosomes) are located on opposite poles.
TELOPHASE
38
**Meiosis** is the main event involved in the process of gamete formation called *gametogenesis*.
39
gamete formation in females is called __.
oogenesis
40
Gamete formation in males is called __
spermatogenesis
41
If meiosis does not occur properly, an egg or sperm could end up with too many chromosomes, or not enough chromosomes. Upon fertilization, the baby could then receive an extra chromosome (( **TRISOMY**), or have a missing chromosome (**MONOSOMY**).
42
