Frage Antworten
What are the 2 main phases of eukaryotic cell division? - Interphase - Mitotic phase
What in general happens in the interphase? - Long periods of growth and normal working
What processes happen during interphase? - DNA replication and checking for errors - Protein synthesis -Mitochondria and chloroplasts grow and divide - Normal metabolic pathways
What happens during the G1 phase? - Proteins synthesise - Cell grows - Cell contents duplicates
What happens in the S phase? - Chromosomes replicate
What happens in the G2 phase? - Checks duplicated chromosomes for errors and repairs errors - Cell grows - Energy stores increase
What happens in the mitotic phase? - Mitosis - Cytokinesis
What is mitosis? Nucleus division
What is cytokinesis? - Cytoplasm division which creates 2 new separate cells
What happens in the G0 phase? Cell leaves the cycle permanently or temporarily.
What are some of the reasons for G0 to occur permanently? Differentiation - specialised cells can't divide - permanent removal Damaged Cell - can no longer divide - most cells only divide a certain number of times Aged - more cells in the body
When does G0 occur temporarily? Lymphocytes temporarily leave the cycle in immune responses
What do checkpoints do? Monitor and verify whether the processes have been accurately completed at each phase.
What does the G1 checkpoint check? - Cell size - Nutrients - Growth factors - DNA damage
Where is the G1 checkpoint? Between G1 and S phase
What does G2 checkpoint check? - Cell size - DNA replication - DNA damage
Where is the G2 checkpoint? End of G2 and before mitotic phase
What does the spindle assembly checkpoint checl? Checks chromosomes are attached to spindles and have aligned.
