1. Main idea A full sentence about what the text is about. Main point being made by the
author.
2. Topic A few words about what the text is about. Subject of the text
3. Main point Similar to the main idea. Basically just the main point of the passage. Look
at the last sentence of the first paragraph (sometimes it's there)
4. Drawing logical con- supported directly by the text
clusions must be
5. Denotative Literal meaning of word
6. Technical writing Describes complex processes
7. Implications Things the author does not state directly
8. Abstract Summary of a book, comes before the table of contents
9. Opinion Author's own feelings. Look for words like "should, best, etc."
10. Explicit Told directly by the author, an author's interpretation of events or perspec-
tive
11. Implicit Not stated directly but the reader understands because of the clues in the
text.
12. Summary Look at the first sentence of the last paragraph. Summaries are hard to read
because they leave out digressions, graceful language, and asides
13. Negative correlation As one variable increases, the other decreases
14. Positive correlation As one variable increases, the other increases
15. Centromere Center of the chromosome determines how many chromosomes there are

16. chromatid long shape of the chromosome
17. chromatin messy form of chromosomes
18. Centrosome Assists in moving chromosomes throughout the entire process. NOT the
same as Centromere. Remember it like this, chromosome ends with
"some", so centro"some" refers to chromosome. They have the same end-
ing.
19. The cell cycle is divid- TWO major phases (Interphase and mitosis)
ed into
20. At the beginning of S 46 total chromatin (23 maternal, 23 paternal)
phase the cell has
21. Maternal From the mother
22. Paternal From the father
23. Interphase has _____ 3
phases
24. G2 phase Cell continues to grow, centrioles begin to elongate
25. G1 phase Cell is performing its normal task, begins to replicate organelles
26. S phase DNA replication begins, after replication the cell has 2x the amount of
chromatin
27. Prophase First phase of mitosis.
- Chromatin becomes chromatids
- nuclear envelope begins to dissolve
- Centrosomes migrate to ends of cell
28. interphase

Cells spend 3/4 of
their time in
29. Metaphase - Kinetochores form at the centromere, holds onto the microtubule and
locks it in place.
- Microtubule spindles connect to centromere
- Chromosomes line up in the middle along the metaphase plate
- Nuclear envelope has completely dissolved
30. Anaphase - Cell begins to elongate
- Sister chromatids are pulled apart from each other, leaving 46 on both
sides
31. Telophase - Cleavage furrow pinches parent cells into two identical daughter cells in
a process called cytokinesis.
- Nuclear envelope is reformed
- Microtubules release chromosomes
32. G0 phase Cell resting phase
33. Mitosis produces 2 diploid cells
34. Quiescent state Cells are dormant until stimulated. For example liver cells only divide when
there is some kind of viral stress, toxic stress, or trauma to the organ occurs.
35. Senescent state Cells permanently do not enter the cell cycle. For example a cell that is old
or has permanently damaged dna.
36. Apoptosis Cells that are programmed to die after they complete their task. For exam-
ple, cells that line the digestive tract die every 2 to 3 days after completing
their task
37. be subject to growth arrest
