Biology ch 12

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
asexual reproduction   involves one parent and produces a clone  
🗑
sexual reproduction   involves two parents  
🗑
examples of asexual reproduction   binary fission, budding, fragmentation,  
🗑
Karyotype   used to identify sex or aneuploidy (abnormal number of chromosomes)  
🗑
chrosomes 1-22   autosomes  
🗑
chrosome 23   sex chrosomes  
🗑
homologous chrosomes   similar in sturcture and carry the same types of genes, one from each parent  
🗑
diploid   contain a full set of chrosomes form both parents  
🗑
stomatic cells   all body cells: skin, nerve  
🗑
haploid   cells that contain 1/2 the full set of chrosomes  
🗑
gametes   reproductive cells; egg and sperm  
🗑
how many divisions occur in meiosis   2  
🗑
in what cells does meiosis occur in   sex cells  
🗑
how many chromosomes end up in the daughters cells   half the amount  
🗑
how many daughter cells result in meiosis   4  
🗑
Spermatogenesis   results in 4 equal sperm cells  
🗑
oogenesis   resluts in 1 large egg and 3 polar bodies  
🗑
interphase   longest phase, contians G1, S, G2  
🗑
Prophase 1   snapsis occurs, crosing over occurs, spindle fibers form. chrosomes condense  
🗑
synapsis   homologous chrosomes come together to form a tetrad  
🗑
tetrad   two chrosomes or for chromatids  
🗑
crossing over   segments of nonsister chromatids break and reattach to the other chromatid, causes genetic recombiantion  
🗑
chiasmata   where chrosomes touch each other and exchange genes  
🗑
metaphase 1   shortest phase, tetrads align, indepnednet assortment occurs  
🗑
anaphase 1   homologous chrosomes seperate and move towards the poles, sister chromatids remaind attached at their centromeres  
🗑
telophase 1   each pole now has haploid set of chrosomes, cytokinesis occurs and two haploid daughter cells are formed  
🗑
interkinesis   short period of time between meiosis 1 and 2  
🗑
prophase 2   nucleus and nucleolus dissapear, chrosomes condense, spindle forms  
🗑
metaphase 2   chrosomes line up at equator  
🗑
anaphase 2   sister chromatids seperate  
🗑
telophase 2   nuclei and nucleoli reform, spindle disappears, cytokinesis occurs, 4 haploid daughter cells are produced  
🗑
independent assortment   chrosomes assort independently from one another during meiosis  
🗑
random fertilization   whichever gamete is involved in actual fertilization determines the genes of the offspring  
🗑
nondisjunction   occur when homologous chrosomes fail to seperate at meiosis 1 or when chromatids fail to separate at meiosis 2  
🗑


   

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.
