Cell Repr.oduction

Mitosis and Meosis

QuestionAnswer
Mitotic Spindle equally divides chromotids
Prophase 1st phase of mitosis,nuclear enevelope breaks down
Interphase time between cell divisions, longest part of cell cycle,(includes: G1,S,G2)
G1 Phase 1st phase of interphase, cell makes more cytoplasm and organelles, controls when cell divides
Cleavage Furrow divides animal cell into 2 offspring
S phase DNA is copied, (part of interphase)
Anaphase 3rd phase of mitosis, chromosomes move to opposite poles
asexual reproduction production of offspring from 1 parent
Chromatids 2 copies of DNA on each chromosome, form before cell division
Centromere attaches 2 chromatids
Homologus Chromosomes similar in shape and size, have simliar genetic info.
Diploid cell that contains 2 sets of chromosomes
Haploid cell that contains 1 set of chromosomes (ex.human sex cells, 23)
Prophase I phase of meiosis, crossing over occurs
Cancer misregulation of proteins that control cell growth and division
First Growth (G1) cell grows and casrries out functions
Mitosis Check Point Triggers exit from mitosis
Second Growth (G2) prep. for nucleus to divide
G1-S-G2-Mitosis-Cytokenisis ...represents the cell cycle
The S is the phase in which... DNA synthesized (copied)
Phases G1,S,G2, are called... interphase
Spindle Fibers are made of... Microtubles- move chromosomes apart & cleavage furrows
Disease caused by uncontrolled cell division... cancer
In the first stage of binary fission DNA is... copied
Karyotypes chromosomes present in a humans cells
During which phase of meiosis do tetrads form? prophase I
Division of cytoplasm in a eukaryotic cell is... cytokensis
What occurs during synapsis? paring of homologues
During Mitosis and Meiosis kinetochore fibers are thought to? move chromosomes
Histones are protiens that... aid in the packing of DNA in eukaryotic cells
Spermatogenesis results in 4 haploid sperm cells
Each offspring cell produced by binary fision contains identical copy of original cells chromosomes
Crossing over results in genetic recombination by permiting the exchange of genetic material b/t maternal and paternal chromosomes
What structure not found in animal cells forms along the midline of a dividing plant cell? Cell plate
Describe how you could tell if a diividng cell is prkaryote or eukaryote? in Eu. look for centriole,nucleus,chromosome, in Pr.circular molecule of DNA
2 ways that meiosis differs from mitosis... meiosis results in hapolid cells, cells produced in meiosis differ genitically from original cell
Independent Assorment? and how does it affect genetic makeup of offspring? random seperation of homolugus chromosomes, genetic variation
describe the role that spindle fibers play in mitosis... splits chromosomes for cell division
Advantage of sexual reproduction? changes characteristics,allows species to adapt rapidly
Compare process of spermatogenisis to oogensis? both produce gametes, s. occurs in males, o. occurs in females,s. results in 4 haploid cells, o. results in 1 hapolid ovum and 3 polar bodies which eventually die
Describe the difference b/t cytokinesis in animal cells and plant cells? animal cells have no cell wall and split using cleavage furrow, in plant cells the golgi appratrus that form a cell plate and split the cell
Describe structure of chromosome rod shaped structures made of DNA and protiens

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.
