chromatin
IN INTERPHASE
thread-like
not visible with a light microscope
combination of DNA & proteins that make up eukaryotic chromosomes/contents of the nucleus
Why must the nuclear membrane dissolve at the end of prophase?
so the sister chromatids can line up in the center of the cell
so the SC can move to opposite poles
so it ends up with 2 nuclei in telophase
Centrioles
development of spindle fibers in cell division
cylindrical organelle near nucleus (animal cells)
in pairs
Cancer A
No response to growth factors
Signals/cell regulatory checkpoints don't work
(some make their own growth factors)
Cancer B
tumors
Benign tumors remain in place of origin-non-cancerous; may become cancerous in some cells
Cancer C
-defect gene p53 stops the cell cycle if the DNA is damages, causing the cell to divide uncontrollably
-defect gene p27 stops entry into the S phase if the cell is not ready
(may not work in some cancer)
Metastasis
spread of cancer cells beyond their original site
Cyclins
protein signals
regulate cell cycle
may not work in some cancerous cells
Apopsis
destruction of the cell
body cells (Somatic)
46 chromosomes from humans
sex cells (Gametes)
23 chromosomes from humans
centrioles
helps create spindle fibers
chromosomes
Thickened structure within the nucleus containing genetic information
made of DNA coiled around proteins
Malignant tumors
can spread toother parts of the body
