List the three stages of the cell cycle in order starting after a cell splits. 1. 2. 3. List the phases of interphase in order and a brief description of what happens in each phase. Why would a cell enter a G0 phase? 12. Explain the difference between chromatin, chromosome and chromatid. What phase of the cell cycle has each form of DNA? Mrs. Rippin Page 1 of 8 9/19/13 Part 2: Mitosis 1. Explain the role of the spindle, the centromere and the centrioles in mitosis. Spindle: Centromere: Centrioles: 2. Mitosis is the division of the ______________________ while cytokinesis is the division of the _______________________. 3. How does cytokinesis differ in a plant cell versus an animal cell? For the descriptions below, write the phase of the cell cycle (not just mitosis) described. Phases may be used more than once. 4. _______________________ Nuclear envelope begins to disappear 5. _______________________ Chromatids reach the ends of the spindle and two nuclei reform 6. _______________________ Cell grows, more mitochondria are produced 7. _______________________ The cytoplasm divides and two new cells are formed. 8. _______________________ Centromere splits, chromatids separate and begin to move apart 9. _______________________ Spindle begins to form 10. _______________________ Chromosomes line up in the middle or equator of the spindle/cell 11. _______________________ DNA duplicates and is in the form of chromatin 12. _______________________ Chromatin coils up into chromosomes 13. _______________________ In plant cells, a new cell wall forms 14. How many chromosomes would each new cell have after a human body cell divides by mitosis/cytokinesis? Is the new cell haploid or diploid? 15. How many chromosomes would each new cell of a diploid cell with 12 chromosomes have after it divides by mitosis/cytokinesis? Is the new cell haploid or diploid? 16. In what phase of the cell cycle does the cell spend most of its life? ________________________________ Mrs. Rippin Page 2 of 8 9/19/13 17. For the following pictures, identify the phase of mitosis by writing the phase on the line beneath the picture. All 4 phases of mitosis are represented. List 1-2 things that happen in the phase underneath the line. In the box next to each picture, write a number to place them in the correct order. ______________________________ ________________________________ Describe what is happening: Describe what is happening: _______________________________ _________________________________ Describe what is happening: Describe what is happening: 18. How do proteins relate to cancer? What happens if the wrong proteins are synthesized? 19. What environmental factors contribute to cancer formation? 20. How do cancer cells differ from normal body cells? Why are these differences beneficial to cancer cells and make them more difficult to remove? Mrs. Rippin Page 3 of 8 9/19/13 Part 3: Meiosis 1. What are homologous chromosomes? How do they line up in mitosis? How do they line up in meiosis? 2. What are tetrads? Why are they necessary in meiosis, but not mitosis? 3. Why is meiosis necessary for the formation of sex cells? 4. What is crossing over? When does it occur? How does it contribute to genetic variation and thus species variation? 5. Describe how the following phases are different in meiosis and mitosis: A) mitosis prophase and meiosis I prophase B) mitosis metaphase and meiosis I metaphase 6. How do the two phases of meiosis in question #5 contribute to genetic and species variation? 7. A human body cell contains ___________ chromosomes, but a human sex cell (gamete) contains ____________ chromosomes. 8. What is the difference between a haploid cell and a diploid cell? Which type is a body cell? Which type is an egg or sperm cell? 9. Define genetic recombination. 10. When a human egg and sperm combine, a ________________________ forms with 46 chromosomes. 11. List 3 ways that meiosis differs from mitosis. Mrs. Rippin Page 4 of 8 9/19/13 Part 4: DNA Structure and Replication 1. Describe the contribution made by each of the following scientists: Watson and Crick: Rosalind Franklin: 2. Describe the structure of DNA. Draw a sketch of an individual nucleotide as part of your description. Label each part. 3. What is the main function of DNA? 4. Why does the DNA need to replicate? When does replication occur? 5. What are the base pairs? (Which nitrogen bases pair together in DNA?) What rule applies to base pairing? 6. Which of the nitrogen bases are purines? Which are pyrimidines? 7. What enzyme catalyzes DNA replication? 8. What is a replication fork? Why are they necessary? 9. What types of errors can occur in replication? How can they be corrected? 10. What happens to the cell if replication errors are not corrected? 11. If one side of the DNA is ATTCGGATA, what would the other side be? Mrs. Rippin Page 5 of 8 9/19/13 12. What is gene expression? How do proteins control an organism’s appearance, behavior, and ultimately all cell processes? 13. Why is RNA necessary? Where is it made? 14. What two processes make up gene expression? Part 5: RNA and Transcription 1. What makes up the DNA code? 2. The alphabet codes for words, DNA codes for _______________________________________, which make up _________________________. 3. A) What do you call each group of three nucleotides? B) What does each group code for? 4. Groups of three are used because DNA needs to code for ____________ amino acids. 5. The start codon is _____________ and codes for the amino acid _______________________________. 6. The stop codons are _________, _________, and __________. They indicate the stopping points in the amino acid sequence. 7. List 3 differences and 3 similarities between RNA and DNA. You may use a chart. 8. Describe the process of transcription. Try to do this without notes first and use your own words. You do not need to know the names of each stage, just describe what happens. Mrs. Rippin Page 6 of 8 9/19/13 9.
