  2. Cell cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_cycle

    The eukaryotic cell cycle consists of four distinct phases: G 1 phase, S phase (synthesis), G 2 phase (collectively known as interphase) and M phase (mitosis and cytokinesis). M phase is itself composed of two tightly coupled processes: mitosis, in which the cell's nucleus divides, and cytokinesis, in which the cell's cytoplasm and cell membrane divides forming two daughter cells.

  3. Cellular waste product - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_waste_product

    CO 2 is excreted from the cell via diffusion into the blood stream, where it is transported in three ways: Up to 7% is dissolved in its molecular form in blood plasma. About 70-80% is converted into hydrocarbonate ions, The remainder binds with haemoglobin in red blood cells, is carried to the lungs, and exhaled. [11]

  4. Proton pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proton_pump

    Complex I (EC 1.6.5.3) (also referred to as NADH:ubiquinone oxidoreductase or, especially in the context of the human protein, NADH dehydrogenase) is a proton pump driven by electron transport. It belongs to the H + or Na + -translocating NADH Dehydrogenase (NDH) Family (TC# 3.D.1), a member of the Na + transporting Mrp superfamily .

  5. Molecular diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_diffusion

    In cell biology, diffusion is a main form of transport for necessary materials such as amino acids within cells. [1] Diffusion of solvents, such as water, through a semipermeable membrane is classified as osmosis. Metabolism and respiration rely in part upon diffusion in addition to bulk or active processes.

  6. Protein production - Wikipedia

    Cell lines used for this system include: Sf9, Sf21 from Spodoptera frugiperda cells, Hi-5 from Trichoplusia ni cells, and Schneider 2 cells and Schneider 3 cells from Drosophila melanogaster cells. [23] [25] With this system, cells do not lyse and several cultivation modes can be used. [23] Additionally, protein production runs are reproducible.

  7. Cell division - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_division

    Due to their structural differences, eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells do not divide in the same way. Also, the pattern of cell division that transforms eukaryotic stem cells into gametes (sperm cells in males or egg cells in females), termed meiosis, is different from that of the division of somatic cells in the body. Cell division over 42.

  8. Biochemical switches in the cell cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biochemical_switches_in...

    The cell cycle is a series of complex, ordered, sequential events that control how a single cell divides into two cells, and involves several different phases. The phases include the G1 and G2 phases, DNA replication or S phase, and the actual process of cell division, mitosis or M phase. [ 1 ]

  9. Cellular respiration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_respiration

    For multicellular organisms, during short bursts of strenuous activity, muscle cells use fermentation to supplement the ATP production from the slower aerobic respiration, so fermentation may be used by a cell even before the oxygen levels are depleted, as is the case in sports that do not require athletes to pace themselves, such as sprinting.
