Chapter 12- Cell Cycle and Mitosis Flashcards
Describe the shorthand version of Mitosis (5)
- parent cell
2) interphase: cell grows, chromosomes duplicate
3) Mitosis: chromosome copies are separated to opposite ends
4) Cytokinesis: divides to 2 daughter cells
5) 2 daughter cells
Continuity of life =
reproduction of cells
cell division reasons (3)
1) asexual reproduction
2) growth development
3) tissue renewal
Cell’s DNA is called
Genome
DNA is __m long in a cell
2 METERS
How can the dna be so long and replicated ?
Chromosomes
Chromosomes contain
protien and dna
building structure of chromosomes =
building material = chromatin
somatic cells:
cell body cells EXCEPT sex cells
A somatic cell contains ___ chromosomes, ___ sets
46, 2 sets of 23
2 sets of 23 come from where?
One from mother and father
Duplicated chromosome has ____ sister chromatids
2
each chromatid has a centromere, T or F
True
Mitosis def
divison of genetic material
cytokensis def
splitting of cytoplasm
5 parts of the cell cycle pie chart in order
Mitosis, cytokenisis ( both are M phase), then G1, S, G2
5 stages acryonym
PP MAT
Prophase
2 pairs of centrioles go to cell poles
chromosomes (consist of 2 sister chromatids)
spindle fiber forms
