MCB 150 2026 CELL STRUCTURE AND
FUNCTION REVIEW COMPLETE NOTES
◉ Anaphase
Answer: A: kinetochore MTs separate sister chromatids
B: polar MTs "push" and astral MTs "pull" poles
◉ Telophase
Answer: Undo what was done during prophase
◉ The Cell Theory
Answer: All living organisms are made of one or more cells, all cells
come from pre-existing cells
◉ Walther Flemming
Answer: Introduced the term Mitosis
◉ Edouard van Beneden
Answer: reported that the total number of threads in a cell remains
constant during subsequent divisions
◉ Wilhelm Waldeyer
, Answer: Introduced the term Chromosome to refer to to the thread-
like structures in dividing cells
◉ Four processes of cell life
Answer: Cell growth, DNA replication, distribution of replicated
chromosomes, cell division
◉ S-Phase
Answer: DNA synthesis
◉ G1
Answer: pretty much normal cell life
◉ G2
Answer: DNA correction, stock piling stuff for M phase
◉ M-Phase
Answer: Mitosis
◉ G0
Answer: Metabolically active but not going to go into division
