Question: Proteins that act as catalysts; or a protein that functions as a catalyst for a
chemical reaction.
Answer:
Enzymes
Question: Substances that regulate the rate of chemical reactions but do not unite
permanently with reactants
Answer:
Catalysis
Question: Heat, acids, and bases break the weak hydrogen bonds holding the protein
together. This ruins the unique shape of the protein in a process called....?
Answer:
Denaturation
Question: The region of the enzyme where contact is made between the substrate and the
enzyme
Answer:
Active site
Question: Molecule that the enzyme will alter
Answer:
Substrate
Question: When two daughter cells are identical; same number of chromosomes as the
parent cell (growth from fertilized egg into adult human; cells replicate themselves)..
Answer:
Mitosis
Question: In daughter cells with one-half the chromosome number as the parent cell (sex
cells-sperm and eggs)
Answer:
Meiosis
Question: When the cell's cytoplasm and associated parts divide is or divison of cell plasma
membrane.
, Answer:
Cytokinesis
Question: A constriction of the cell membrane at the equator of the cell that marks the
beginning of cytokinesis in animal cells. The cell divides as the furrow deepens.
Answer:
Cleavage furrow
Question: A partition that is formed during telophase of cell division in plants and some
algae and that separates the two newly formed daughter cells.
Answer:
Cell plate
Question: What are the four main stages in Mitosis (in order)
Answer:
Prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase
Question: T/F: Is interphase a part of mitosis?
Answer:
False
Question:
Answer:
Question: What is the difference between Mitosis and cytokinesis?
Answer:
Mitosis is the process by which the nucleus splits in two. Cytokinesis is the process by which
the cell membrane splits, thereby completing cell division. Cytokinesis comes after mitosis.
They are both processes in cell division.
Question: What happens in Prophase?
Answer:
the initial phase of mitosis when the chromatin organizes into chromosomes, centrosomes
move to opposing poles, spindle fibers develop and attach to the chromosomes, and the
nuclear membrane disappears.
Question: What happens in Metaphase?
