Cell Cycle Flashcards

1
Q

How Chromosomes is formed?

A

i. In the nucleus of each cell, the DNA molecule is packaged into the thread like structure called chromosomes.

ii. Each chromosome is made up of DNA tightly coiled many times around histones that support its structure.

16
Q

It occurs when a chromosome fragment lacking a centromere is lost during cell division

A

Deletion

17
Q

It occurs when a fragment becomes attached as an extra segment to a sister chromatid

A

Duplication

18
Q

It occurs when of chromosomal fragment reattaches to the original, psalm but in the reverse orientation

A

Inversion

19
Q

A chromosomal fragment joins a nonhomologous chromosome

A

Translocation

20
Q

— is an orderly set of stages that take place between that time a cell divides and the time resulting daughter cells also divide.
— It is controlled by internal and external signals like a molecule that stimulates or inhibits a metabolic events.

A

The cell cycle

21
Q

CC stages:
Is a process in which a cell may double its entire content in preparation for cell division

A

Interphase

22
Q

The cells contents are distributed in two daughter cells

A

M-phase

23
Q

During this stage, the cell carries on its regular activities, and it also gets ready to divide if it is about to complete the cell cycle.

G1 phase -growth
S phase - Dna Synthesis
G2 phase - Growth and preparation for mitosis

A

Interphase

24
Q

a period when the cell increases in size in preparation for cell division. RNA and proteins including enzymes needed for making DNA synthesized

A

Gap 1 Phase

25
Q

Periods during which DNA is synthesized and chromosomes are replicated. Each strand of the double-stranded chromosomes produced is called a sister chromatid

A

Synthesis Phase

26
Q

Stage when the cell continues to synthesize RNA and proteins and increase in size

A

Gap 2 Phase

27
Q

Undergone by all somatic and germ cells. The process of cell division which result in the production of teo identical daughter cells.

A

Mitosis

28
Q

First phase of mitosis
The process that separates the duplicated genetic material. In the nucleus of a parent cell into two identical daughter cells

A

Prophase

29
Q

Chromosomes align along equator of the cell, with the one kinetochore facing each pole.

A

Metaphase

30
Q

Sister chromatid separate.

Spindle fibers attached to kinetochores shorten and pull chromatids towards the poles

Free spindle fibers lengthen and pushed poles of cell apart

A

Anaphase

31
Q

Spindle fibers disintegrate.
Nuclear envelopes form around both groups of chromosomes.
Chromosomes revert to their extended state.
Cytokinesis occurs, enclosing two daughter nucleus into a separate cell

A

Telophase

32
Q

Division of the cytoplasm to form two new cells, overlaps with the final stages of my mitosis.

It may start in either and anaphase or telophase, depending on the cell, and finishes shortly after telophase

A

Cytokinesis

33
Q

A division of the nucleus that reduces the chromosomes number by half.

Important and sexual reproductions.

Involves combining the genetic information of one parent with that of the other parent to produce a genetically distinct individual

A

Meiosis
