BIO QUIZ 2.3

QuestionAnswer
what does cell division do? (3) replaces old and damaged cells, some organisms regenerated new body parts | reproduction | growth and development
what is a chromatin? the substance in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells
what is chromatin made of? made of DNA (genetic material) and proteins
what are the proteins called? how does it help DNA? histones, helps DNA coil in an organized way to fit inside nucleus
how do chromatins form chromosomes? when tightly coiled/condensed
look at pictures of uncondensed/condensed chromatins ok!
what are the two types of chromosomes? 1) duplicated/replicated, double rod 2) unduplicated/unreplicated, single rod.
what is dna replication? turns single-rod chromosomes into double rod chromosomes
in double rod chromosomes, what is a chromatid? 1 rod of a double rod chromosome
in double rod chromosomes, what are sister chromatids? both rods of double rod chromosome
in double rod chromosomes, what is a centromere? area where 2 chromatids attach
why do sister chromatids have identical DNA? because of DNA replication
label where the centromere is on sister chromatids... alright.
what are the steps of interphase? G1, S, G2, M.
what happens in G1? cell grows, makes more organelles perform its normal functions
what happens in S? synthesis, DNA replicates from single rod to double rod chromosomes
what happens in G2? similar to G1, cell getting ready to divide.
what happens in M phase? nucleus divides (mitosis/meiosis) cell divides (cytokinesis)
what happens in mitosis in plant v animals cells? in plants, most don't have centrioles and spindle fibers. in animals ALL have centrioles and spindle fibers.
what happens in cytokinesis in plant v animals cells? in plants, cell plate grows down the middle and forms cell wall, creating 2 cells. in animals, cells pinch in (belt forms by fibers in middle) and causes formation of 2 cells.
how does cancer happen? uncontrolled cell division, failure of one or more checkpoints in the cell cycle
what are the stages of mitosis? prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, later telophase/cytokinesis (PMAT)
what happens in prophase? (4) longest phase of mitosis | chromatin coils/condenses into chromosomes | nuclear membrane disappears | centrioles move to opposite sides or poles of cell, sets up spindle fibers.
what happens in metaphase? (2) spindle fibers attach to centrometers and help chromosomes move into place | chromosomes line up single files in center of cell.
what happens in anaphase? (1) double rod chromosomes split into single rod chromosomes which are pulled to opposite sides of the cell by spindle fibers / sister chromatids separate and are pulled to opposites by spindle fibers
what happens in telophase? (4) chromosomes reach opposite ends of cells, uncoiling/uncondensing stopping tightly packed | chromatin is not in shape of chromosomes/reverting to chromatin state | new nucleus forms around each set of chromosomes (creates 2 nuclei) | spindle fibers go away
what happens in later telophase/cytokinesis? cytokinesis begins and cell starts division
what is mitosis in simple terms? 1 cell -> 2 daughter cells, new cells have identical DNA to organisms and sister cells
purpose of mitosis in unicellular organisms mitosis = reproduction (asexual, one parent)
purpose of mitosis in multicellular organisms mitosis = growth and repairing of cells
look at diagrams of mitosis in each stage and learn how to draw yes

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
