BI Lab 8

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Term
Definition
interphase   phase in which the cell can be considered to be preparing to divide  
🗑
G1, first growth stage   consists of increased metabolic activity and replication of organelles  
🗑
S (synthesis) phase   when DNA is duplicated  
🗑
G2, second growth phase   when protein synthesis occurs to make components that are essential for mitosis  
🗑
mitosis   division of the nuclear contents  
🗑
cytokinesis   division of the cytoplasm  
🗑
G0   refer to a cell that has not yet become committed to going through cell division again  
🗑
chromosome   consists of two sister chromatids joined by a centromere  
🗑
sister chromatids   joined by a centromere  
🗑
centromere   join two sister chromatids  
🗑
mitotic spindle   on either side of the centromere, microtubules attach the chromosomes to the __________________ during the mitotic phase  
🗑
mitosis   nuclear division  
🗑
prophase   the duplicated chromosomes condense and become visible as distinct darkly stained bodies in the nuclear area  
🗑
nuclear envelope   the membrane that encloses the nucleus, breaks down  
🗑
metaphase   the chromosomes align along the cell's equator or metaphasic plate  
🗑
anaphase   the double-stranded chromosomes are pulled apart at their centromeres  
🗑
single-stranded chromosome   migrates toward the opposite pole of the cell  
🗑
telophase   the single-stranded chromosomes reach opposite poles of the cells and nuclear envelopes reappear around each set of single-stranded chromosomes  
🗑
cytokinesis   cytoplasmic division, actually begins in anaphase, completion occurs following telophase  
🗑
meristems   regions of active cell division that result in the elongation of tips in stems and toots, and in the expansion of girth in woody plants  
🗑
allium   onion root tip  
🗑
parent cell   go through a series of stages to produce two new daughter cells  
🗑
daughter cells   with the same number of chromosomes as the original parent cell  
🗑
fertilization   joining of sperm and ovum  
🗑
zygote   diploid cell that is produced when the sperm and ovum join together  
🗑
cleavage   cell divisions, no growth occurs  
🗑
blastula   ball of cells in which repeated mitotic divisions take place  
🗑
cleavage furrow   helps accomplish cytokinesis in animal cells  
🗑
centrioles   involved in the organization of the mitotic spindle and in the completion of cytokinesis in animal cells  
🗑
embryology   animal development  
🗑
sygote   fertilized egg  
🗑
growth   occurs when the cells get larger and continue to divide  
🗑
differentiation   refers to the specialization of cells  
🗑
morphogenesis   occurs when the body begins to take shape  
🗑
two-cell   stage of development in which the fertilized egg or zygote divides  
🗑
four-cell   stage of development in which the two-cell stage divides  
🗑
morula   continued division of the cell leads to this many-celled stage which resembles a raspberry  
🗑
blastula   the morula becomes a hollow ball of cells  
🗑
gastrula   blastula later develops into this  
🗑
unfertilized egg   can be identified by the large nucleus and darkly stained nucleolus  
🗑
haploid   the egg only contains half of the chromosome number of the parent  
🗑
diploid zygote   egg fertilization by a haploid sperm results in this  
🗑
fertilization membrane   forms around the egg to prevent other sperm from entering it, but this membrane is not visible on all slides because it may have been destroyed when the slides were prepared  
🗑
cleavage   consists of mitotic cell division without growth in cell size  
🗑
yolk   the only food source during cleavage  
🗑
blastomeres   individual cells in each stage, are getting smaller  
🗑
eight-cell stage   cleavage of the four-cell stage results in this  
🗑
blastocoel   inside the blastula is this fluid-filled cavity  
🗑
invagination   gastrulation, signals the beginning of the gastrula stage; the cells at one end of the blastula begin to push into the blastocoel as they divide  
🗑
archenteron   the invagination consists of a slight indention that grows and forms this primitive gut  
🗑
blastopore   the opening of the archenteron  
🗑
deuterostomes   the blastopore forms the anus  
🗑
ectoderm   will form the outer skin and the nervous systerm  
🗑
mesoderm   will give rise to the muscles, connective tissues, and reproductive organs  
🗑
endoderm   will form the digestive tract and associated organs  
🗑
   
🗑


   

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.
