Question
Answer
fertilization occurs within how many days of ovulation   24 hours  
🗑
blastocyst formation and implantation occurs when?   day 6  
🗑
primitive streak gastrulation occurs when?   day 15 to week 4  
🗑
somite formation is completed when?   week 5  
🗑
teratogenic period occurs when?   week 3 to 8  
🗑
what is the purpose of mitosis?   somatic cell division to allow equal segregation of replicated genomes (each daughter cell gets a set of genes)  
🗑
what is the purpose of meiosis?   germ cell line division, reduce genomes in half  
🗑
what are the 4 phases of interphase?   G1, G0, S, G2  
🗑
which phase of interphase has DNA replication?   S  
🗑
germ line consists of which 3 elements?   reproductive cells, gametes (1n), gametic stem cells (2n)  
🗑
what are x-shaped formation produced at the synapse?   chiasma  
🗑
what 5 events occur during prophase in mitosis?   centrosomes separate, nucleus dissociates, spindles form, chromasomes condense, and sister chromatids form bipartites  
🗑
what occurs during metaphase?   centromeres attach to spindle in metaphase plane  
🗑
what occurs during anaphase?   sister chromatids are drawn to opposite poles of the spindle  
🗑
what occurs during telophase?   reverse of prophase: spindle dissociates, chromosomes unravel, nuclear membrane reforms around each set of chromatids  
🗑
nuclear division at the completion of mitosis is called what?   karyokinesis  
🗑
what are the steps of meiotic prophase I?   (same as mitosis except that chromatids are already bipartites)1. bipartites become bivalents 2. crossing over occurs with the synaptinemal complexes 3. homologs repel each other and open chiasmas 4. the synaptinemal complex dissociates 5. spindle formati  
🗑
where do oocytes arrest during meiosis?   during prophase I, after the synaptinemal complex dissociates  
🗑
what happens after meiotic prophase I?   same process as mitosis except that during anaphase I, the bivalents separate into bipartites and are pulled to opposite sides of the spindle  
🗑
what are the products of meiosis?   4 haploid daughter cells  
🗑
matching chromosomes from different parents are called what?   homologs  
🗑
duplicated chromosomal strands produced in DNA replication are called what?   chromatids  
🗑
joined chromosomes are called what?   bipartite  
🗑
all four homologs joined is called what?   bivalent  
🗑
another word for bivalent is what?   tetrad  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
