Cell Division and Differentiation Concepts

What is cell differentiation?

• Process by which cells produce MORE cells.

• Process by which cells become UNSPECIALIZED

• Process by with cells become SPECIALIZED

• Process by which cells become old and DIE

Match the following

• Cell prepares for division; doubles number of organelles

• Cytokinesis

• Process of division of the cytoplasm

• G2

• DNA is replicated

• G1

• Gap or growth phase; cell doubles in size

• S

• Process in which the nucleus is divided

• Mitosis

Match the following

• Anaphase

• The cell starts to split into two

• Prophase

• Genetic material condenses

• Interphase

• Sister chromatid moves apart

• Telophase

• Chromosomes line up in middle of cell

• Metaphase

• Cell growth, and DNA replicates

DNA Replication follows the following base pair rule:

Adenine bonds with​ (a)  

Guanine bonds with ​ (b)  

• Thymine
• Guanine
• Adenine
• Cytosine
• Uracil

The process of DNA Replication uses an enzyme that helps to break the hydrogen bonds. We say that this enzyme "unzips" the DNA strand.

DNA Replications uses a specialized enzyme to find the "free-floating" nucleotides and it pairs them with the complementary nucleotide. It helps connect the two new strands of DNA.​

​ (a)   ​ ​

• DNA Polymerase
• DNA Helicase
• RNA Polymerase
