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
