26
Apoptosis
programmed cell death
27
When is DNA replicated
S phase of interphase
28
What can vesicles be formed by?
cell membrane
29
What is the function of the nucleus?
Brain of the cell
30
What do the chromosomes attach to?
Centromere
31
Osmosis
movement of water where there is higher solution of impermeable solute
32
What are the 3 major parts of the cell?
nucleus, cell membrane, cytoplasm
33
What genes are studied for cancer?
Tumor suppressor genes and oncogenes
34
What part of the chromosome is the mitotic clock?
Telomeres
35
What type of RNA binds to the amino acids?
tRNA
36
What pathway is enzyme-controlled reactions in?
Metabolic pathway
37
Do smooth or rough ER have ribosomes
Rough ER
38
What do you start and end with in the anaerobic cellular respiration?
Glucose and end with 2 pyruvic acids
39
Where is the mitochondria located?
In the intercellular fluid (cytosol)
40
What does it mean if someone is lactose intolerant?
That person does not have the lactase enzyme to break down the sugar in lactose
41
What reaction only ends up with 23 chromsomes?
Meiosis
42
What do lysosomes and peroxisomes have to break down things?
Enzymes
43
What is the complimentary base paired to Thymine?
Adenine
44
How does sodium get on the outside of the cell?
Active transport
45
What causes cystic fibrosis?
Abnormal chloride channels
46
lysosomes
small membranous sacs that contain enzymes to break down proteins, carbs, nucleic acids, bacteria, debris
47
Is cytosol extra fluid?
no
48
Hypotonic solution
the cells gets bigger because water goes where the solute is highest (inside the cell)
49
What is cellular respirations purpose?
Create cellular energy
50
Where do mRNA and tRNA bind?
In the ribosome
51
What in the cell is most affected by genetic disorders?
Mitochondria
52
Phagocytosis
Solid particles
53
How are simple and facilitated diffusion similar?
they use no energy and move from high to low
54
What is the product of the citric acid cycle per glucose?
2 ATP, 6 NADH, 2 FADH2
55
Where do aerobic reactions occur
Mitochondria
56
Lack of blood cells will result in?
Necrosis
57
Name the process by which genetic info within a mRNA strand is turned into a polypeptide bond?
Translation
58
Endocytosis vs exocytosis
Endo is the movement of a substance into the cell inside a vesicle, and exo is the releases of them
59
Bases for RNA
