20
Q

Mitosis is a process that duplicates and divides only what?

A

Only the nuclear contents

21
Q

Mitosis produces two daughter cells that contain the same number of?

A

Chromosomes as the parent cell

22
Q

What is the correct sequence of stages in the cell cycle?

23
Q

Below the skin are stem cells that divide, with some cells continuing the stem cell line and others being pushed toward the surface to?

A

Flatten and die and be sloughed off.

24
Q

In bone marrow are other stem cells producing cells such as the erythrocytes that lose their nucleus and function for a few months in the blood stream before they too die, such “dead end” cells that reproduce no further… Leave the…..?

A

Cell cycle in a G0 phase, which immediately follow telophase

25
The critical checkpoints that control the cell cycle are at the?
G1 to S stage and G2 to M phase
26
During which stage of the cell cycle is cell growth and replication of organelles most significant ?
G1 Phase
27
Which stage is most associated with a cell that is unable to divide again, such as a muscle or nerve cell?
The G0 phase
28
What is the correct sequence of stages of mitosis?
``` Prophase Pro metaphase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase ```
29
What occurs in metaphase ?
Chromosomes line up along the equator of the dividing cell
30
What occurs in anaphase ?
Chromosomes move to opposite poles
31
In multicellular organisms, mitosis is a means of?
Tissue growth and repair
32
Apoptosis refers to cell death and can be?
Programmed and is essential to normal development
33
Most of the cell cycle is spent in ?
Interphase
34
Apoptosis is?
- programmed cell death - is a process that acts to decrease the number of somatic cells - works to oppose the effects of mitosis - is necessary for the proper development of an embryo
35
Each Eukaryotic chromosomes.......??
- consists of both DNA and protein - contains Histones responsible for packaging DNA to fit into a small space - come in pairs in most organisms -
36
Chromosomes like )( | typically appear in which stage of the cell cycle ??
Late prophase and metaphase
37
The chromosome is only highly coiled during what phase?
During mitosis
38
Each half of the chromosome will split from the other at ?
During anaphase
