ch 6 & 7 mitosis n meiosis Flashcards
WHAT is genome
a cell’s entire DNA
What is the Prokaryotics Genome?
- no nucleus
- DNA is in area called nucleoid
- has plasmids little boops of DNA outside nucelois
What is the Eukaryotics Genome?
-DNA inside nucleus
- chromosomes,
- several dbl stranded and linear DNa
What makes up the Human Genome?
- somatic cells
- diploids
- gametes (haploids)
what are the somatic cells?
body cells, nOT INCLUDING SEX CELLS
- 46 chromos, 23 pairs
what is a Diploid?
Chromosome pair, referred to as 2n
What are Homogolous Chromosome Pairs
- matched and same chromosomal pairs
- called genes, and makes up who we are
What are the GENERAL MAjor phases of a Cell’s Cycle?
- Interphase
- Mitotic Phase
(remember IM)
What is the G1 phase in Interphase? explain
- G1 : gap one, cell gathers energy, nutrients to prepare itself for DNA replication
- nothing happens on outside, only inside
What is the S phase in Interphase>
Synthesis
- DNa replication
- sister chromatids are created which are two EXACT copies of chromosome dna
what are the Sister Chromatids (Mitosis) held tg by
Held together in the Centromere. the mama
What is the G2 phase
Gap two
- organelles are getting duplicated and now its ready for Mitotic phase
What happens generally to the cell in the Mitotic Phase?
the cell divides itself
- formation of daughter cells that are identical to one another
- diploid to diploid
What is PPMAT ?
Mitosis phases
- prophrase
- prometaphase
-metaphase
-anaphase
-telophase
What happens in Prophase
- nuclear envelope breaks down
- chromosomes condense and now visible
- spindle fibres emerge from centrosomes and go to oppo side of cell
