Which is not a reason why cells remain small
Cells remain small to enable communicatio.
Large cells have difficulty diffusing nutrients rapidly enough
As cells grow, their ratio of Surface Area to Volume increases
Transportation of wastes become a problem for large cells

A
B
C
D
If cancer is present what is the likely explaination for what happened to the cells labeled B and D
They thrived and grew with the cancerous cells
They were harmed by the treatment of Radiation or Chemotherapy
They died off due to natural causes
A cell has 12 chromosomes. How many chromosomes will each daughter cell have
4
6
12
24
The cell cycle is regulated by
Cyclins
hormones
enzymes
sugars
Cancer cells can reproduce rapidly because they
are smaller than normal cells
bypass interphase
undergo mitosis faster
Spend less time in interphase
What is cancer caused by?
A cell membrane damage
A mutation in the DNA either naturally or by the environment
Poisoning
Immune-system damage
What is the role of cyclin-dependent kinases in the cell cycle?
They stop the cycle if something has gone wrong.
They catalyze the condensation of the chromosomes.
They provide the energy for the actions of the spindle fibers.
They initiate various stages of the cell cycle.
The typical (main) growth period of a cell occurs during which stage of the cell cycle?
Gap 1
Gap 2
synthesis
mitosis
What are 2 types of cell division
Mitosis and meiosis
Kenesis and Lancisis
Mewoiss
Kenosis
Before a cell can divide and become two daughter cells what must happen to the DNA
It needs to be cut up
It needs to be doubled
It needs to be halved
Nothing happens to it
What is the correct order of the Cell Cycle
Mitosis, Interphase, Cytokinesis
Interphase, Cytokinesis, Mitosis
Interphase (G1, S, G2), Mitosis, Cytokinesis
Cells don't go through a cycle are you crazy!!!
What phase of the cell cycle does the nucleus divide
Meiosis
Mitosis
G1
S

Proto-oncogenes
Tumor Suppressor genes
