Mitochondria: Found in great numbers in an active cell G 0: The cell leave the cycle and stop dividing

Nucleus: Contains genetic information that directs activities Mitosis: Each daughter cell receives its own copy of the
of the cell parent cell’s DNA
Endoplasmic Reticulum: Network of membrane-enclosed G 2: The cell produce microtubules required for division
spaces involved in protein manufacture
Ribosome: Freely-floating structures in cytoplasm involved
in protein synthesis
Lysosome: Phagocytic cells have this in abundance
Cell Membrane: Controls transfer of substances into and
out of cellsv
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum: Site of lipid formation
Microtubules/Cytoskeleton: Reinforces cell’s shape and
functions in cell movement.
Golgi Body: Active in protein modification, sorting, and
secretion of cell products
Nucleolus: Involved in production of ribosomes
Nucleus: Consists of DNA and proteins
Plant Cell: surrounded by rigid coat of CELLULOSE contains
MITOCHONDRIA and CHLOROPLAST has WELL DEFINIED
NUCLEAR MEMBRANE and DNA
CELL CYCLE:
G1: Cell increase in size

Synthesis: DNA replicate

DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid): A spiraling chain-like
molecule made of nucleotides. DNA nucleotides or base
pairs occur when nitrogenous bases make hydrogen bonds
with each other. Each base has a specific
partner: guanine with cytosine, adenine with thymine (in
DNA) or adenine with uracil (in RNA). The hydrogen bonds
are weak, allowing DNA to 'unzip'. This lets enzymes
replicate the DNA.
Gene: Long stretch of DNA that codes for something, usually
a protein or a group of proteins. A typical human gene may
be anywhere from 300 to over 1,000,000 nucleotide pairs
long.
Mutation: Any change in the nucleotide sequence of chain
of DNA/RNA.
