Cell Cycle Interventions

Front

What bond holds the two DNA strands together?

Back

Hydrogen bonds hold the two DNA strands together, allowing them to form the double helix structure.

Front

What is the result of DNA replication?

Back

DNA replication results in two DNA molecules, each with one new strand and one original strand.

Front

What is the result of the cell cycle?

Back

The cell cycle results in two identical cells, which are clones of the original cell.

Front

Why is it crucial that living things are able to replicate their DNA?

Back

Each cell must have its own DNA, as it contains the instructions for life.

Front

Which enzyme is responsible for adding nucleotides during DNA replication?

Back

DNA Polymerase is the enzyme responsible for adding nucleotides, acting as 'The Builder'.

Front

What is the role of DNA in living organisms?

Back

DNA carries genetic information essential for the growth, development, and functioning of living organisms.

Front

What is the function of the cell cycle?

Back

The cell cycle is responsible for cell growth, DNA replication, and cell division.

Front

What are the main phases of the cell cycle?

Back

The main phases of the cell cycle are Interphase (G1, S, G2) and Mitotic phase (M).

Front

What happens during the S phase of the cell cycle?

Back

During the S phase, DNA replication occurs, resulting in the duplication of chromosomes.

Front

What is mitosis?

Back

Mitosis is the process of cell division that results in two identical daughter cells.
