Bio Exam 3 Flashcards
Interphase includes which parts of the cell cycle?
G1, S, G2
DNA is replicated during which phase of the cell cycle?
S phase of Interphase
What is cytokinesis
division of the cytoplasm
When does cytokinesis occur?
right at the end of telophase
Cytokinesis in plant cells
cell plate forms from the fusion of vesicles carrying cellulose, forming the new cell wall between the daughter cells
cytokinesis in animal cells
form a cleavage furrow from microfilaments tightening to form 2 daughter cells
The spindles form and attaches to chromosomes during which phase of mitosis
Phophase and prometaphase
the spindles form and attach to chromosomes during which phase of meiosis
prophase I and prophase II
what are the spindles formed by
microtubules
the spindles are formed by microtubules which will attach to what
sister chromatids
what is the attachment of spindles formed by microtubules attached to sister chromatids
kinetochore
what is the attachment of sister chromatids to each other called
centromere
how are you able to determine that DNA replicates during S phase during interphase
you have twice as much DNA at the G2 than what you had at G1
True/false a cell is 2n=60
TRUE
how many chromosomes will it have at G1
60 chromosomes= 60 strands of DNA
how many chromatids will it have after S phase
120 chromatids= 120 strands of DNA
what are 2 strands of DNA formed at the centromere
chromatids
how many sister chromatids will there be during mitosis
60 sister chromatids= 120 strands of DNA
how many daughter cells will be made and how many chromosomes would there be in each daughter cell
2 daughter cells, 60 chromosomes in each one
the process by which millions of cells are made every second in an animals body, new skin, blood and bone cells
mitosis
Genes code for what?
all the proteins
how does the sister chromatids form
two identical chromatids (original + the copy) will join together
Humans are _______ (equation)
2n=46
How many chromosomes do humans have?
46 (46 strands of DNA)
Of the 46 chromosomes, how many are autosomes?
44 (22 pairs)
how many pairs are sex chromosomes?
1 pair
what is the synthesis phase when DNA replicates
S Phase of the cell cycle
what part of the cell cycle is when the DNA condenses
G2
what percent of a cells cycle is spent in interphase
90%
what are the phases of mitosis
prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase
what is the process when cells divide into 2 daughter cells with identical chromosomes and genes
Mitosis
what is the process of prophase
sisterchromatids condense, centrioles migrate, and nucleolus and nucleus begin to fragment
