Give an example of a cell Blood loss or tissue injury
type found in the body
that remains in G0 phase
until prompted.
Process of increasing cell numbers by mitotic cell
Define cell proliferation
division.
In normal tissues, the Equivalent
number of new cells being
produced is ______ to the
number of cells dying or
being shed.
When considering cell 1. Gametes (ovum and sperm)
proliferation, human cells 2. Somatic (non-reproductive cells)
fall within one of these
two categories:
,Gametes are _________ Haploids
What is a haploid? A cell that contains a single set of chromosomes
What are haploids Sexual function
designed for?
After fusion, a ______ cell Diploid
is formed
How many sets of 2
chromosomes do diploids
have?
Diploids are an example Somatic
of what type of cell?
Give 3 examples of a well- 1. Skeletal muscle cells
differentiated cell that 2. Cardiac muscles cells
rarely divides or 3. Neurons
reproduces
Give 3 examples of a 1. Blood cells
progenitor (parent) cell 2. Skin cells
that continue to divide 3. Liver cells
and reproduce.
Undifferentiated ___cells Stem
that can enter the cell
cycle and produce large
numbers of progenitor
(parent) cells if needed
What is cell Refers to the process by which cells become more
differentiation? specialized in both their structure and function
The various cell types of The fertilized ovum
the body all originate
from where?
, As differentiation Tightly regulated
progresses, the process
within each developing
cell type must be _____ ______
As cells become more Structural; functional
and more specialized they
lose the ability to develop
the _______ and _____
characteristics of other
cell types
What is the benefit of It ensures that the integrity and composition of
specialized cells being developing organs is maintained and free from
unable to take on the differing cell types
structural and functional
characteristics of other
cell types?
What happens when They rely on parent cells of the same lineage that are
specialized cells are still able to divide
unable to divide?
Stem cells, unlike Differentiated; dormant
progenitor cells, remain
incompletely ____ and
____ until they are
needed.
When a stem cell divides, One retains the stem cell characteristics while the
what happens to its 2 other becomes a parent cell until it reaches a state of
daughter cells? terminal differentiation
What are 2 important 1. Self renewal
properties of stem cells? 2. Potency
What is self renewal as it Stem cell can undergo many mitotic divisions while
pertains to stem cells? maintaining an undifferentiated state
What is potency as it The differentiation potential of steem cells
pertains to stem cells?
