2 General Phases of the Cell Cycle | Interphase; Mitosis |
Phases of Interphase | G1; S; G2; G0 |
What is the G1 Phase | The Growth Phase |
What is the S Phase | Cell Replicates DNA |
What is the G2 Phase | Cells grows and makes preparations for mitosis |
What is G0 Phase | Resting Phase While waiting for mitosis |
Phases of Mitosis | Prophase; Metaphase; Anaphase; Telephase |
What happens in Prophase | Chromosomes Condense, spindle fibers form, Nuclear envelope dissolves |
What happens in Metaphase | Chromosomes lined up, attach to spindle fibers |
What happens in Anaphase | Centromeres split |
What happens in Telephase | Chromosomes move to opposite poles, Mitotic Spindle breaks down |
What happens in Cytokinesis | Cytoplasm divides |
What phase of the cycle does DNA replicate | Interphase … S phase |
Function of DNA in a cell | Genetic makeup; Long-Term storage of information |
Process by which glucose is broken down | Glycolysis |
Glycolysis | Anaerobic process that breaks down glucose; Happens in the Mitochondria; Break down of 1 glucose produces 2 ATP |
Citric Acid Cycle | Series of chemical reactions used by aerobic organisms to release stored energy; Happens in mitochondria; Generates 1 ATP per pyruvic acid (2 ATP per glucose) |
Electron Transport Chain | Series of proteins and organic molecules found in inner membrane of the mitochondria; Aerobic process; Produces 32-24 ATP |
