Q

why must growth be controlled

A

if you don’t have controlled growth in g1, it will look like this
there will be an exponential growth of cells with only a nucleus
you would expect to see (if the growth was to controlled)… she never said what actually happens so…

Q

A chromosome has how many genes

A

100s - 1000s of genes

20
Q

do all species have the same number of chromosomes

A

Different species have different numbers of chromosomes

21
Q

how many chromosomes do human have

A

we have 46

22
Q

what are chromosomes before cell division

A

Chromosomes are uncondensed before cell division

23
Q

what are duplicated chromosomes

A

Duplicated chromosomes, held together at the centromere, are called sister chromatids

24
Q

how are chromosomes duplicated

A

Chromosomes are duplicated through DNA replication

25
DNA molecule is split up the middle of what
the helix
26
what are the steps to DNA replication
Chromosomes are uncondensed before cell division Duplicated chromosomes, held together at the centromere, are called sister chromatids Chromosomes are duplicated through DNA replication DNA molecule is split up the middle of the helix Nucleotides are added to each side, pairing by hydrogen bonding Result is two identical DNA molecules, each with one parental strand and one new strand semiconservative replication DNA pol moves along the length of the unwound DNA 
and helps form new strands from the template strands
27
what is DNA polymerase:
is the enzyme that | replicates DNA
28
DNA replication results in what
DNA replication results in lots of chromosomes that must be efficiently segregated into daughter cells
29
Mitosis produces what
two genetically-identical nuclei
30
Mitosis is followed by what
cytokinesis
31
what is cytokinesis
splits the two nuclei into two daughter cells
32
what are the 4 stages of mitosis
prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase
33
what happens in prophase
Chromosomes condense Nuclear envelope disappears Microtubules pull/push chromosomes Animal cells: microtubules are attached to centrosomes (which contain centrioles) centrosomes form the poles of spindle apparatus
34
what happens in Metaphase
Chromosomes are aligned across the middle of the cell by microtubules
35
what happens in Anaphase:
``` centromeres separate (they do not split) sister chromatids are pulled apart toward opposite poles ```
36
what happens in Telophase:
Nuclear envelope reforms around the chromosomes | Chromosomes return to uncondensed form
37
what is cytokinesis
Cytokinesis is the stage in which two daughter cells are formed from the original one
38
what happens After cytokinesis,
cells re-enter interphase (G1)
39
what pinches the original cell into two new cells
Proteins (microfilaments; actin) pinch the original cell into two new cells
40
what does cytokinesis in plants start with
Starts with vesicles forming the cell plate
41
what is the result of cytokinesis in plants
This results in a new cell wall (made of cellulose) being formed between the cells forming daughter cells
42
what uses Asexual reproduction
bacteria, some eukaryotes
43
what is Asexual reproduction
Only one parent | Offspring are genetically identical to parent
44
what uses Sexual reproduction
animals, plants, fungi
45
what is produced from sexual reproduction
Gametes are combined from two parents
46
what are the offspring like compared to their parent in sexual reproduction
Offspring are genetically different from one another and from the parents
