Ionic

non-metal and a metal

Covalent

non-metal and a non-metal

Example of Base

Types of Cancer

Benign and Malignant

Treatments for Cancer

Surgery, chemotherapy, radiation

Cancer

is the result of a cell which begins to divide uncontrollably.

Gene

A specific portion of the DNA strand, determining a specific trait in an organism

DNA

Deoxyribonucleic Acid.


A mixture of 4 basis (A, C, G, T) whose order contains life-bearing information.

Sexual Reproduction

All offspring are created from both male and female genetic information (mitosis)

Asexual Reproduction

All offspring are created from and are identical to a single parent (meiosis)

Stem Cells

A cell that can differentiate into many different types of cell

Osmosis

The process by which cells take in water or lose water and it helps them maintain proper balance.

Active Transport

Physically opening the cell membrane into a pocket to allow entrance of larger molecules. (Vitamins, minerals etc)

Regeneration

The ability of a tissue to repair itself. (i.e. Muscle, bone and skin can regrow/heal after injury. Note: Nerve cells do NOT regenerate)

DNA to Protein



1. DNA is untwisted, then unzipped to expose one half of the DNA code for transcription.



2. Bases are aligned in the unzipped DNA strand to transcribe a portion to send a copy (mRNA) out of the nucleus for manufacturing.



3. The mRNA leaves the nucleus via the nuclear pore complex and is shuttled to a ribosome where protein synthesis begins.



4. As the “strip” of mRNA enters the ribosome, further base-pairs, connected to amino acids, interconnect with the open bases on the mRNA sequence. (A--> U, G --> C)



5. A protein emerges from the amino-acid chain, which is further folded into the protein shape prescribed.

Interphase

The longest period of time.


It is not actively dividing by mitosis, ‘inter’ means “between.”


1. Cell grows


2. Stores materials needed for cell division


3. DNA is in long, invisible strands called chromatin.


4. DNA is replicated


5. Prepares for mitosis

Prophase

Chromosomes become coiled and visible.


Centrioles travel to either side of the cell and are connected by cords called spindle fibers.


The nuclear membrane breaks down and disappears.


Centrioles and spindle fibers become visible (in animals).

Metaphase

Spindle fibers pull chromosomes to align them in the middle of the cell.


You can see their “equitorial” formation.

Anaphase

Spindle fibers contract and shorten.


This pulls centromeres apart, breaking chromosomes into chromatin.


Chromatin move to centriole (poles) of cell.

Telophase

One set of chromatin at each pole of the cell.


Chromosomes uncoil and become invisible.


Spindle fibers disappear.


Nuclear membranes forms around each chromatin.


There are now two nuclei in the cell.

Cytokenesis

Cell wall forms between two nuclei.


Cell division ends after cytokinesis.

Cells divide to......

1. Reproduce


2. Grow


3. Repair

Cell Theory

1. All living organisms are composed of one or more cells.
2. The cell is the most basic unit of life.
3. All cells arise from pre-existing, living cells.

Cell Membrane

Allows things in and out

Mitochondria

The powerhouse

Nucleus
