contains kinetochore protiens and holds th sister chromatids
15
Q
What are the 5 phases of mitosis(nuclear division)?
A
prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, telaphase+cytokinesis
16
Q
what happens during prophase
A
chromosomes start to condense, centrioles move to opposite ends of cell, centrials produce polar microtubules+aster microtubules
17
Q
what happens during prometaphase
A
nuclear envelope disappears, chromosomes finish conducting, centrials produce kinetochore microtubules, then spindle apparatus(p,a,k microtubules)
18
Q
what happens during metaphase

Meiosis 1 and Meiosis 2
25
what happens in meiosis 1
interphase same as mito
prophase1+prometaphase-same as mito
synapsis occurs- homologeous chromosomes line up and h-bond to each other crossing over occurs now-homologs exchange segments so traits now swapped (happens ~50-70 times per meiotic divi)
metaphase 1-23 tetrad line up SAME
anaphase1- homlog sep SAME
telephase+cytokinesis-same as meiosis except chromosomes stay condensed, nuclear envelope does not form, parental sets of chromosomes do not stay tg in first mieotic divi
26
what happens in meiosis 2
interphase same as mito
prophase 2-same
prometaphase 2- same
metaphase2- same as mito
anaphase 2-same as mito
telephase 2+cytokinesis-same as mito

29
describe oogenesis
2N 1° oocyte goes through meiosis 1 turning into 1 BIG 2° 1N oocyte and one 1N polarbody then big oocyte goes through meiosis 2 and breaks into small polarbody and one BIG 1N oocyte (1 gamete)

31
what arw the 2 results of error nondisjunction
aneuploidy and polyploidy

69
define origins of replication
short sequence of nucleiotide based pairs that start the process of replication
70
what molecules are involved in replication?
heliace, topoisomerace, primace, DNA polymerace III, DNA polymerace I, and DNA ligace
71
what does helicace do in replication?
binds to OR and moves in a 3'->5' direction, generating the 2 strands
72
what does topoisomerace do in replication?
binds and moves ahead of the helicace and unwinds/unhelixess DNA strand
73
what does primace do in replication
attaches free RNA nucleiotides to the DNA nucleiotides at the OR- called a primer
74
what does DMA polymerace III do in replication
adds free DNA nucleiotides to exposed DNA strand moving 3'->5'
75
what does DNA polymerace I do in replication
removes RNA nucleiotides and replaces them with DNA nucleiotides
76
what does DNA ligace do in replication
attaches DNA strands together
77
how to make the leading strand in DNA replication?
helicace does its job, primace does its job, topoisomerace does its job, DNA polymerace III binds to DNA strand and primer and moves 3'->5' building new dna strand
78
how to make the lagging strand in DNA replication
about every 200 bases primace binds to the unreplicated strand and add a primer, dna poly III binda to primer + unreplicated strand and moves 3'->5' building small segment of DNA(okazaki frag), DNA poly I removes primer+does ita job, then dna ligace does ita job
79
what are the two steps of protien synthesis
transcription ans translation
80
define transcription
information on gene is used to build an RNA
81
define translation
information on RNA is used to build a protein
82
define promotersite on a transcription?
short sequence of nucleiotides aprox 40 base pairs upstream of gene that contain tata box
83
define termination site on a transcription
short sequence that identifies the end of a gene
84
describe the process of transcription
transcription factor(protien) binda to chromosome just upstream of the promotersite, allows RNA polymerace to bind to promotorsite, RNA polymerace moves down gene separating the 2 DNA strands and adding RNA nucleiotides to the 3'->5' strand, RNA polymerace reaches terminator site + causes RNA polymerace to detach RNA poly to be released(RNA transcript) + DNA strands to connect
85
what are the three types of RNA?
ribosomal RNA(rRNA), messenger RNA(mRNA), transfer RNA(tRNA)
86
define ribosomal rna
small piece of RNA that combines with proteins to make ribosomes

DNA---->RNA
C. - G
G. - C
A. - U
T. - A
90
define tRNA
folded RNA that carry amino acids to the ribosome to make a protien. anticodon binds to codon
91
3 steps of translation
initiation, chainelogation, termination
92
describe initiation
ribosome(rrna) binds to mrna and to initiator trna
93
describe chainelongation
once the initiation complex formed the next codon is exposed in ribsome ,the next trna(w/amino acid) binds to the codon, peptide bond is formed between the amino acids(linking them) then first trna detaches from AA and exits, ribosome moves down mrna and exposes the next codon, then repeats at next trna
94
describe termination
ribosome reaches the stop codon(no trna)a releasing factor(protien) binds to a stop codon causing ribosome mrna and protien to seperate
95
three ways gene amplification(speeding up of translation) occurs
1. there may be more than 1 copy of gene on the chromosome
2. multiple simultaneous transcription of a gene
3. multiple simultaneous translation of the mRNA
96
define gene
section of chromosome that codes for an RNA
97
what does coding gene do?
codes for a protien
98
what does non coding gene do
doesn't code for a protien
99
what does polyadenylation do during post transcription modification of mrna
adds adenines to end of mrna(poly A tail)
100
what does splicing do during post transcription modification of mrna
removes the introns from the mrna to make a functional mrna
101
define intron(post transcription modification of mrna)
short section of mrna that gets removed
102
what does alternative splicing do during post transcription modification of mrna
creates unique combination of exons to produce 2 unique protien (don't have to use all exons)
103
percentages of DNA?
2% off dna is genes
8% of dna-endogenous retroviral dna
104
define psuedo genes and example
non functional genes that are remnants from ancestors. GLUD- gene found in mammals- produces enzymes for vitamin C synthesis preventing scurvy
105
define virus
protien capsul contains genetic material capable of injecting that material into a host cell and making more virus
106
two types of viruses?
dna virus and retro virus
107
describe dna virus
inserts dna into host, dna gets transcribed and translated and makes more virus
108
deacribe retro virus
inserts mrna into host and reverse transcriptase(enzyme) (reverses transcription) dna becomes incorporated into host dna (provirus) this stays dormant but can get triggered +be expressed where it makes more viral particles and kills host
