THE EUKARYOTIC CELL CYCLE AND CANCER: AN OVERVIEW ABOUT THIS WORKSHEET

This worksheet complements the Click and Learn “The Eukaryotic Cell Cycle and Cancer” and is intended as a straightforward introduction to the cell cycle and how that relates to cancer. For a more comprehensive student worksheet, please see the in depth version.

PROCEDURE

Read through the Click and Learn at (http://www.hhmi.org/biointeractive/eukaryotic-cell-cycle-and- cancer) to learn about the cell cycle. Answer the questions below.

Click on the “Background” tab on the right side. Read the information and watch the videos.

Click on the purple section labeled “Cell Cycle Phases” as well as the words “Mitosis” and “Interphase” to read an overview of the cell cycle. You can also click on the various phases.

Cells go through periods of growth and division. Cell division occurs during _______________.

The rest of the cell cycle is called interphase, during which _____________________________

_____________________________________________________________________________.

Fill in the details about what happens during the three phases of interphase labeled in the diagram.

In general, what is the purpose of a checkpoint in the cell cycle?

`

Click on the “Background” tab on the right side. Read the information and watch the videos.

1.Why is cell division important for both unicellular and multicellular organisms?

2.Why does cell division remain important to an adult organism even after it is fully developed?

3. Cells divide, differentiate, or die. What is differentiation?

4. What is apoptosis? What is its purpose?

5. What are cell cycle regulators?

6. What happens if cell cycle regulators don’t function properly?

Explanation / Answer

ANSWER:

1) Unicellular reproduce organisms. Multicellular repairs dead or damaged cells.They both help develope and grow.

2) It replaces cells that are dead

3) Specialize in structure and function like what kind of cell it be,brain cell,skin cell,etc...

4) Viral acceptance of apoptosis happens when one or a few cells of a living being are tainted with an infection, prompting cell demise. Cell passing in creatures is important for the typical improvement of cells and the cell cycle development. It is likewise imperative in keeping up the consistent capacities and exercises of cells.

5) Molecular signals that stimulate or heat division

6) The cell cycle is a critical aspect in the human body. In general, it is the life of the human body. when the cell cycle is not regulated properly, there are several factors that will happen. The cell can die, created mutations such as in DNA level (DNA mutation: frame shift, deletion/insertions, and etc), no production of transitional factor and more( it gets more and more detailed). To best sum it up, it the cells need to be regulate to do the specific functions that they are suppose to do. Each part of our body has different cells. ( skin cells, liver cell, brain cells, neurons, and so forth)
