Science

What is important about cell theory

* the cell is the smallest living unit in all organisms * All living thing are made up of cells* all cells come from other pre-existing cells

What are the 4 levels of organization listed?

1. Cells2. Body tissue 3. Organ4. Organ system

How does a multicellular organism grow?

The cell replicate

How do cells make more cells

They divide or copy

The overgrowth of cells can cause

Cancer

Why do cells become cancer cells?

* genetics* toxins* radiation* UV light

Where do cells spend most of there time

Interphase

All cells do mitosis at the same speed.

False

Do we want cells to divide that have a mutation

No

What are the 3 parts of interphase

1. G12. S3. G2

What happens in the phases

G1: growsG2: DNA replicatesG2: grows more

Checkpoint-G1

Cell growth, make sure DNA is correct before replicating,and correct resources

Checkpoint-G2

Cell growth, correct DNA replication, and correct resources

Checkpoint-mitosis

Metaphase, make sure chromosomes line up in the middle correctly

What happens if the cell doesn't meet the requirements at the checkpoints

1. Cell gets a chance to fix itself2. A-POP-tosis

What are 3 examples of what your body would do when in undergo mitosis

1 cut2 nail growth 3 body growth

What does mitosis do

Divides cells/make more

If Mitosis does not produce sperm or egg cells. What does

Meiosis

What is cancer

uncontrolled cell growth

What does a cell do in interphase

1 grows 2 replicate dna3 grows more

What percent does a cell stay in interphase

90%

What percent does a cell stay in mitosis

10%

In order to keep thing in organized in mitosis, DNA is condensed into units called

Chromosomes

How many chromosomes does a human body have

46

DNA is duplicated before/after mitosis begins

Before

What does PMAT stand for

prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase

Prophase

Nuclear membrane disappears

Metaphase

Chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell

Anaphase

Spindle fibers pull chromosomes apart and turns into chromtids

Telophase

2 nucleus, chromatids make copies

Cytokinesis

Cells split
