Q

cell cycle

A

somatic cell division increases the number of cells in the body

17
Q

apoptosis

A

programmed cell death

18
Q

interphase

A

the cell gets ready to divide

19
Q

mitosis

A

start with 46 and end with 46 chromosomes

  1. prophase-cell breaks up
  2. metaphase- nucleus lines up in the center
  3. anaphase- sister chrome separate (each side has identical copy)
  4. telophase- start to pull nucleus back together
20
Q

sister chromatids

A

chromosome duplicates and is composed of two identical parts

21
Q

centromere

A

holds double chromosomes together

22
Q

centrosome

A

duplicates and migrates to opposite ends of the cell forming the poles

23
Q

centrioles

A

short cylinders found in the centrosome and assist in the formation of spindle fibers

24
Q

prophase

A

chromosomes become visible

  • nucleolus disappears
  • nuclear envelope fragments
  • centrosomes move to opposite sides of the cell
  • aster and spindle fibers radiate out from centrioles
  • spindle fibers attach to centromeres
25
Q

sex chromosomes

A

1 pair of chromosomes

26
Q

meiosis

A

two nuclear divisions in the formation of haploid gametes

-end with 1/2 number of chromosomes

27
Q

meiosis 1

A
  • replication of DNA
  • homologous chromosomes come together and line up side by side called synapsis
  • divison forms 2 daughter cells
28
Q

meiosis 2

A
  • centrosome divides
  • sister chromatids separate
  • divison forms 4 haploid gametes (1/2 the number)
29
Q

mitosis

A
  • body (somatic) cells
  • DNA replication
  • 1 nuclear divison
  • 2 diploid cells
  • genetically identical
30
Q

meiosis

A
  • sex cells (gametes
  • DNA replication
  • 2 nuclear divisions
  • 4 haploid cells
  • not genetically identical
31
Q

spermatogenesis

A

formation of sperm in the male

32
Q

oogenesis

A

formation of eggs in the female

33
Q

nondisjunction

A

occurs when both members of a homologous pair go into the same daughter cell during meiosis 1, or when sister chromatids fails to separate in meiosis 2

34
Q

monosomy

A

cell has only 1 copy of a chromosome

35
Q

turner syndrome (XO)

A

only 1 X chromosome (GIRL)

-short stature, broad shouldered, with folds on the neck, underdeveloped sex organs and breasts

36
Q

trisomy

A

cell has 3 copies of chromosome

37
Q

down syndrome

A

3 copies of chromosome #21

38
Q

klinefelder syndrome (XXY)

A

(BOY)

-underdeveloped sex organs, breast development, large hands, and long arms and legs

39
Q

jacobs syndrome (XXY)

A

tall, persistant acne, speech and reading problems
