Q

what do the fluids that permeate the membrane (or get transported across need to have)

A

small & non-polar

(water is polar but very small so it bypasses)

(glucose is non-polar but too large)

Q

what are chloroplasts and why are they unique

Q

what do plant cells have that animals don’t

A

a cell wall - both have a membrane but the membrane for plants is inside the cell wall

Q

what are the parts of the cell cycle

A

G1 - preparing for dna replication & cell maintenance

S - synthesis & dna replication

G2 - prepare for division (doubling of all organelles)

M - true division (mitosis/meiosis)

Q

what is mitosis

A

occurs in non-germ cells (not sperm/egg)

IPMAT
interphase - dna synthesis (doubles, chromosomes STAY at same number but look different (like a K/X))
prophase
metaphase
anaphase
telophase
cytokinesis

Q

how do we calculate the number of cells for mitosis

A

2^n where n is number of divisions

17
Q

what is unique about chromosomes in mitosis

A

they don’t exist in pairs
in anaphase they get ripped apart
eventually becoming 2 separate nuclei with same information (unless mutation occurs)

18
Q

how do we calculate the number of cells in meiosis

A

4^n where n is number of divisions

19
Q

what do we get out of mitosis

A

2 genetically identical daughter cells, parent cell no longer exists

20
Q

what is meiosis

A
  • for germ cells
  • want half the genetic information
  • chromosomes line up in pairs rather than in single file
  • crossover so a bit of dna is shared in both
  • separated into 2 cells & divided again so the genetic information in every cell is slightly different (4 different chromosomes)
  • 4 daughter cells that are genetically different
21
Q

what are the complimentary base patterns for dna

A

G goes with C

A goes with T
