16
Q

specifics of anaphase

A

sister chromatids separate at centromeres

move toward poles

17
Q

anaphase A movement

A

chromosomes pulled apart (toward centrosomes)

18
Q

anaphase B movement

A

poles themselves move apart

19
Q

steps of telophase

A
daughter chromosomes reach opposite poles
chromosomes uncoil (elongate)
nucleoli develop
spindle disassembles 
nuclear envelopes form
cell undergoes cytokinesis
20
Q

Roles of mitotic motors

A

move chromosomes
movement of spindle poles
exert a pull on spindle poles

21
Q

how do mitotic motors work

A

use energy from ATP to change shape

22
Q

basic steps of cytokinesis in animal cells

A

formation of cleavage furrows in early anaphase
belt-like bundle of actin microfilaments make a contractile ring
ring closes separating the cells

23
Q

what makes up the contractile ring during cytokinesis

A

actin microfilaments

24
Q

basic steps of cytokinesis in plant cells

A

microtubules organized into phragmoplast
directs cell wall material to form cell plate
made of vesicles from the golgi
formation of cell plate

25
Q

what is phragmosome

A

zone of cytoplasm between nuclei

where cell plate is formed

26
Q

what is phragmoplast

A

barrel shaped structure that directs cell wall material to form cell plate

27
Q

restriction point

A

checkpoint in late G1 that checks for specific nutrients and growth factor

28
Q

G2-M transition

A

commitment to mitosis once passed

checks for cell size and DNA replication

29
Q

metaphase-anaphase transition

A

commitment to separate chromosomes

checks for chromosome attachment to spindle

30
Q

maturation promoting factor (MPF)

A

induces meiotic cell division

aka mitotic CdK-cyclin complex

31
Q

what type of cells are karyotypes taken from

A

metaphase arrested

32
Q

what drug is used to make karyotypes

A

colchine

interferes with metaphse-anaphase transition by hindering MT

33
Q

function of mitotic cyclin

A

regulates progression through euk cell cycle

increased levels lead to activation of MPF and mitosis

34
Q

which is stable and which cycles

A

stable is CdK

cyclin cycles

35
Q

steps of activation of CdK-cyclin complex

A
  1. mitotic CdK and cyclin form an incactive complex
  2. inhibiting kinase adds 2 Phosphates which block active site
  3. activating kinase adds third phosphate
  4. phosphatase removes the 2 inhibiting Pi
  5. CdK-cyclin becomes active
  6. stimulates phosphatase to produce more active complexes
36
Q

why must cyclin be degraded after mitosis

A

otherwise it would induce the cell to go through mitosis before it is ready

37
Q

what happens to cyclin levels during interphase

A

increases at a steady rate
