**REVIEWER IN GENERAL BIOLOGY 1** - Kinases and Cyclins are proteins that served as checkpoints in each stage of Interphase - Synthesis Phase a phase of cell cycle does replication of all DNA in a cell occur - Mitotic Phase a phase of cell cycle does alignment of chromosomes in the equatorial plate occur - Spindle fibers are attached to kinetochores is NOT a requirement for a cell to proceed in S phase - Cyclin/ CDK complex is NOT an inhibiting protein - Synthesis Phase is the phase of cell cycle wherein the cell commit to cell division - Anaphase phase when sister chromatids are pulled toward opposite poles - It occurs in somatic cells is NOT true about meiosis - Chromosomes are reduced to half after meiosis I a feature of meiosis that ensures that offspring will have a diploid number of chromosomes - Golgi body organelle that becomes a part of the cell plate in plant cells during telophase - Cell wall and flagella are features that are common in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells - Prokaryotic cell has a membrane bound nucleus is not a correct statement - Bacterial cell is an example of prokaryotic cell - Plants and Animals would be examples of eukaryotic cell - Eukaryotic a cell has a nucleus, is complex and large, and has membrane bound organelles - Prokaryotic a cell has circular DNA, is small and simple, and no nucleus or membrane bound organelles - The age of the cells is not a difference between Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic cell - Nucleus controls all the major activities of the cell - Cytoplasm makes up everything inside the cell - Vacuole stores other materials needed by the cell - Mitochondria produces/supply energy for the cell - Ribosome creates proteins that are important in the function of the cell - Lipids is the most abundant molecular component of cell membranes - Prevents the fatty acid from sticking together is a function of cholesterol found in cell membranes - A protein has a carbohydrate attached to it. It function are adhesion and recognition - Proteins forms the channels and pumps in the cell membrane - Phospholipid bilayer part of a plasma membrane prevents ions from moving freely in and out of the cell - Prophase phase of the mitotic phase when the nuclear envelope breaks down - telophase a phase of mitotic where cytokinesis happens - Chromosome is different from a chromatin because a chromosome is tightly coiled DNA while chromatin is loosely coiled DNA - There is a need to produce diploid type of cell at the end of cell division so that the cells produced are exact copy of the parent cell - A cell with a diploid number of 24 undergoes meiosis, each daughter cell has 12 chromosomes - Telophase it is the phase of the cell cycle where the reconstruction of the nuclear membrane takes place - Pulling and pushing of the spindle fiber favors the alignment of chromosomes along the equatorial plate - The separation of sister chromatids towards the opposite is the main feature of anaphase - Cytoplasm it is where you can find the DNA in prokaryotic cells - Nucleus it is where you can find the DNA in eukaryotic cells - Nucleoid is the name of the region where double stranded single circular DNA is found in the prokaryotic cell - Eukaryotic cell is a type of cell has membrane bound organelles - Absence of nucleus is the typical feature of a prokaryotic cell - Cell wall acts as a supportive structure for plant cells - Lysosome recycles used materials and transports waste out of the cell - Endoplasmic Reticulum serves as highway that provided transportation network - Cell membrane controls what goes in and out of the cell - Golgi Complex serves as cell packaging center to the products and then ships them to their destinations
