25
Q

Haploid Cells

A

1 set of chromosomes
Meiosis
Sex cells

26
Q

A

2 sets of chromosomes
Mitosis

27
Q

Where does binary fission occur?

A

Asexual reproduction in Prokaryotes, Bacteria and single-celled Eukaryotes

28
Q

At a typical DNA replication fork, the parental strands are separated from each other by…

A

Helicase Enzyme

29
Q

What features of meiosis contribute to genetic variation in a species?

A

crossing over, independent assortment, and random fertilization create genetic diversity

30
Q

Nucleosome

A

A section of DNA that is wrapped around a core of proteins

31
Q

What is the function of nucleosomes?

A

They help supercoil DNA - nucleosomes are a unit of chromatin wrapped around 8 histone proteins

32
Q

3 tenets of Cell Theory

A
  1. All living things are made of cells
  2. Cells are the basic unit of life
  3. New cells come from existing cells (during mitosis)
33
Q

What happens is the G1stage of interphase?

A

Growth and replication of organelles

34
Q

What happens in the S stage of interphase?

A

The cell makes a complete copy of the DNA

35
Q

What happens in the G2 stage of interphase?

A

Growth and preparation for mitosis

36
Q

Positive feedback loop

A

Pushes the body to change away from a starting point

37
Q

Negative feedback loop

A

Brings the body back to the starting point (temperature regulation)

38
Q

Negative feedback loop

A

Brings the body back to the starting point (temperature regulation)
