AP Biology Cell Cycle Regulation
Across
- 4. this is true of the new cells at the end of Mitosis compared to the parent cell
- 5. the protein that increases in amount during certain phases of the cell cycle until it reaches a threshold; allowing it to bind to CDK
- 7. the checkpoint where proper cell growth will be checked
- 9. programmed cell death that occurs if a cell is unfit to progress through the cell cycle
- 11. the stage of the cell cycle that involves equally dividing chromosomes and pushing them to opposite sides of the cell
- 12. the enzyme involved in initiating progression through the cell cycle
- 13. the stage of the cell cycle that involves the final cytoplasmic division into two new daughter cells
- 14. genes that code for proteins that progress the cell cycle
- 16. genes that code for proteins that stop the cell cycle
Down
- 1. a feedback mechanism that involves producing a response until a set point is reached and then decreasing the response
- 2. the stage of interphase when DNA is replicated
- 3. the stage of the cell cycle where a cell is suspended and will either fail to divide completely (as with cardiac muscle cells) or will only divide when a signal is received (as with platelets)
- 4. the portion of the cell cycle where a cell spends most of its time completing normal cell functions and preparing to divide
- 6. if these occur to any protein involved in cell cycle regulation or cell signalling, undesired results may occur
- 8. the checkpoint where proper DNA replication will be checked
- 10. signals that must be received by cells in G0/G1 if they are to proceed through the rest of the cell cycle
- 12. the result that occurs if cells progress unregulated through the cell cycle
- 15. the letters that represent the order of the phases of Mitosis
- 17. the gene and protein involved in halting a cell while DNA repairs, initiates repair enzymes, and initiates apoptosis if repair is not successful
