1st test Flashcards
why do cells divide?
-growth and development
- repairof damaged body parts
- production of reproductive cells
it tells when to start and stop dividing
cyclins
non-dividing stage of the cell
interphase
dividing stage
cell division
dividing stage
cell division
for growth and normal metabolic roles
Gap 1 phase
for DNA replication
synthesis phase
for growth and preparation for mitosis Z
gap 2 phase
for growth and preparation for mitosis Z
gap 2 phase
quiescent stage
GAP 0 Phase
organize all of the stuff that’s about to be divided between the cell and it’s soon to be replicant
centrosomes
organize all of the stuff that’s about to be divided between the cell and it’s soon to be replicant
centrosomes
the skin of the cell
cell membrane
contains the genetic material
nucleus
contains the genetic material
nucleus
contains the organelles; where most cellular activities take place
cytoplasm
contains the organelles; where most cellular activities take place
cytoplasm
double 2n
diploid
one n
haploid
one n
haploid
all body cells except the sex cells and containing diploid number of chromosomes - divide by mitosis
somatic cells
containing the haploid number of chromosomes - divide by meiosis
sex cells
containing the haploid numner of chromosomes - divide by meiosis
sex cells
makes up chromosomes
chromatids
makes up chromosomes
chromatids
what cause amoebiasis
entamoeba histolytica
what cause amoebiasis
entamoeba histolytica
cells without a true nucleus
prokaryoyic
cells with true nucleus
eukaryotic
- a living diuble layer of proteins and carbohydrates
- separates the cell membrane from its external environment
cell membrane
a double membrane of fats and proteins
nuclear
a double membrane of fats and proteins
nuclear
the colloidal solution enclosed by the nuclear membrane
nucleoplasm
structures for protein synthesis
nucleolus
structures for protein synthesis
nucleolus
organize structures of DNA and protein found within cells
chromosomes
- sex cell division
- process that produces 4 daughter cell with haploid number of chromosomes as the parent cell
meiosis
- also known as reduction division
- reduction for chromosomes numbers
meiosis 1
- occupies the longest duration of meiosis
prophase 1
- occupies the longest duration of meiosis
prophase 1
replicated chromosomes appear as long slender thread
leptonema
replicated chromosomes appear as long slender thread
leptonema
synapsis occurs
zygonema
pairing of homologous chromosomes
synapsis
pair of homologous chromosomes
tetrad
-chromosomes continue to become shorter and thicker
- crossing over takes place
pachynema
a series of exchange of genetic material between the specific regions of the homologous chromosomes
crossing over
tetrads tend to repel each other
diplonema
the area of contact between two chromatids
chiasma
the area of contact between two chromatids
chiasma
coiling and contraction of the chromosomes continue
diakinesis
synapsed homologous chromosomes are aligned at the equator of the cell
metaphase 1
the spindle fibers move the tetrads apart pulling the chromosome toward the oppposite sides of the cell
anaphase I
the spindle fibers move the tetrads apart pulling the chromosome toward the oppposite sides of the cell
anaphase I
double stranded chromosome
dyads
di
double stranded chromosomes
dyads
double stranded chromosomes
dyads
the dyads reach the poles of the cell
telophase I
a period of growth
interkinesis
deals with the seperation of two chromotids in a chromosomes
Meiosis II
the centrioles radiate spindle fibers as they move to the opposite sides of the cell
Prophase II
The centromeres of each dyad are directed to the equator of the cell
metaphase II
The centromeres divide and the chromatids or single stranded chromosome (monads) are pulled by spindle fibers toward the opposite poles
Anaphase II
production of two daughter cells with the same quantity and quality of chromosomes as the parent cell
mitosis
- centrioles are moving apart
- chromosomes appear as long thin threads
- nucleolus is becoming less distint
-nuclear membane is still visible - asters are formed
Early prophase
- pair of centrioles begins to organize spindle fibers
- sisters chromatids are formed with a centromere as their point of attachment
Middle Prophase
- pair of centrioles begins to organize spindle fibers
- sisters chromatids are formed with a centromere as their point of attachment
Middle Prophase
Contains two sets of chromosomes
diploid cell
Contains two sets of chromosomes
diploid cell
protein factories of the cell: spherical bodies that produce and assemble protein
ribosomes
protein factories of the cell: spherical bodies that produce and assemble protein
ribosomes
network of fine fibers that provide structural support for eukaryotic cell
cytoskeleton
