|
chromosome type
|

waht are th 5 phase of a cell cycle?
|
interphase, profase, anaphase, metaphase, telophase
|
|
what happens in the G1 portion of the cell cycle?
|
cell growth before DNA replication, chromosomes unduplicate, cells build almost all of the proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids they use for exports
|
|
What happens in the S portion of the the cell cycle?
|
CNA synthesis when
DNA replication is completed chromosomes duplicated, and they copy their DNA, histones, and other proteins |
|
What happens in the g2 portion of the cell cycle?
|
cells prepare to divide, and the produce proteins that will drive mitosis to completion.
|
|
what happens in the molecular brake system?
|
cell cycle can stop at G1, it control mechanism governs the rate of cell division
|
|
What happens in interphase?
|
it usually is the longest part of the cycle, cells increase in mass, number of cytoplasmics compenents doubles, DNA is duplicated
|
|
what happens during mitosis?
|
its a period of nuclear division, usually followed by cytoplasmic division
|

once S begins, the cycl;e automatically runs through ___ and ____?
|
G2 and mitosis
|
|
the cell cycle has a built in moleculas brake in?
|
G1
|
|
some cells normallys stop in ____?

interphase
|
|
nuetrons in humans brains do not ________?
|
divide
|
|
what causes amoebas to get stuck in interphase?
|
when they are deprived of nutrients
|
|
The spindal apparatus consists of __ distinct sets of _____?
|
2, microtubes

|
two sets of distinct microtubes extend from one of the cells ____ amd the 2 sets overlap at the _______?
|
poles, spindal apparatus
|
|
The spindal apparatus helps move chromosomes during ______?
|
mitosis

|
|
what is the kinetochore?
|
attachment site of chromosomes, the microtubule attaches to it, and it creates a push-pull force to seperate sister chromaticaly
