Cell Cycle

Question 0

How do sister chromatids compare to eachother?

Answer 0

They are identical to eachother, unless mutation occurs

Question 1

How do replicated and unreplicated chromosomes different

Answer 1

UnReplicated- single chromatid

Replicated- double chromatid

Question 2

What are homologous chromosomes?

Answer 2

• 2 copies of each chromosome
• same genes
• one from mother, one from father

Question 3

What are the two types of nuclear division?

Answer 3

Mitosis

Meiotic

Question 4

What is the function of mitosis?

Answer 4

Growth, repair, replacement of dead cells, exact copy of cells

Question 5

What is the function of meiotic?

Answer 5

Production of gametes (sperm and eggs)

Reduction of chromosome numbers in half

Question 6

What happens during prophase?

Answer 6

1. Nuclear envelope breaks down

2. Mitotic spindle forms

Question 7

What happens during metaphase?

Answer 7

1. Chromosomes line up in center

2. Each chromatic is attached to only one pole of the cell

Question 8

What happens during anaphase

Answer 8

1. Cell elongated

2. Sister chromatids separate and move to opposite poles

Question 9

What happens during telophase?

Answer 9

1. Spindle disassembles
2. Nuclear envelope forms around each new set of chromosomes
3. Followed by cytokinesis

What are the parts of the cell cycle?

Answer 10

1. Duplicate DNA
2. Prepare for division
3. Cell division
4. Grow
