A

Cytosol (watery substance)

Organelles

50
Q

What is the difference between mitosis and meiosis?

A

Meiosis is cell division that produces sex cells with only half the amount of chromosomes. 23

Mitosis is to produce two new cells with a full amount of chromosomes 46

51
Q

Which is the largest organelle in the cell?

A

Nucleus

52
Q

What is the aim of mitosis?

A

To produce two new cells with a full set of chromosomes

53
Q

What happens in telophase?

A

A nuclear membrane forms around each new set of chromosomes and the cell membrane constricts until two new cells are formed.

54
Q

What happens in anaphase?

A

Chromatids divide as the centrioles pull apart

Cell membranes start to constrict in the centre

55
Q

What happens in metaphase?

A

Nuclear membrane disappears

Chromosomes attach to the spindles and start to pull apart

56
Q

What happens in prophase?

A

Centrosomes start to divide still connected by spindle like threads

Nucleolus starts to disappear

Chromosomes appear

57
Q

Which phase of mitosis has no nuclear membrane?

A

Anaphase

58
Q

Which phase in mitosis do chromosomes appear and centrosomes start to pull apart?

A

Prophase

59
Q

Which phase in mitosis does the cell constrict until 2 new cells are formed and a nuclear membrane forms around both new sets of chromosomes?

A

Telophase

60
Q

In which phase of mitosis do the chromosomes attach to spindles and start to pull apart and the nuclear membrane disappears?

A

Metaphase

61
Q

In which phase of mitosis do the chromatids divide as the centrioles pull apart and the cell starts to constrict in the centre?

A

Anaphase

62
Q

What does RNA stand for?

A

63
Q

What does DNA stand for?

A

Deoxyribosnucleic acid

A

Conducts electrochemical impulses

80

Superior

Inferior

84

A

Anterior

Posterior

85
Q

What happens in the stratum germinativum?

A

Mitosis

Contains a pigment called melanin which gives our skin it’s colouring.

86
Q

What is the deepest layer of your skin and how would you describe this?

A

Subcutaneous and it is made up of fatty cells, pushes sebum up and contains deep follicles.

87
Q

What are the two layers in the dermis?

A

Papillary

Reticular

88
Q

What are the five layers in the epidermis?

A 
Stratum corneum
Stratum lucidum 
Stratum granulosum
Stratum spinosum

91
Q

What is osmosis?

A

Diffusion of water through the cell membrane

92
Q

What is diffusion?

A

Transfer of O2 and CO2 across the membrane

93
Q

What is active transport?

A

When a substance is to large to transfer through the cell membrane a carrier substance takes them from the outside in. Glucose is transferred by active transport. High to low, uses energy.
