Review of Cell Cycle
I play music at the club
Name the 3 Parts of the Cell cycle
1) Interphase: • Gap1: growing, carying out normal cell
function. • Synthesis: copies its DNA in preparation for
cell division• Gap2: Cell prepares for division of the nucleus
2) Nuclear division: Mitosis3) Cytokinesis
Name and describe the 4 phases of mitosis ( in order)
Prophase: • Nuclear membrane breaks down• Nucleolus disappears• Chromosomes coil and thicken• Spindle begins to form between the centrioles
Metaphase:• Chromosomes attach to the spindle and align
along the equator of the cell.
Anaphase• Microtubules shorten, moving chromosomes
to opposite poles.
Telophase:• Chromosomes reach poles of cell• Nuclear envelope re-forms• Nucleolus reappears• Chromosomes decondense
What is a sister chromatid?
• Sister chromatids are structures that contain identical copies of DNA and are attached together with a centromere
What is cytokinesis?
Cytokinesis: a process that divides the cytoplasm which results in two cells, each with identical nuclei.
• Centromere: joins the two sister chromatid• Spindle: The apparatus that moves and
organizes the chromosomes before cell division.
• Chromosome: A single copy of DNA• Chromatin: All the chromosomes in a relaxed
state (during interphase)• Sister chromatids: two copies of DNA
Cancer
• Cancer is uncontrolled cell division
