Chapter 2- Mitosis and Meiosis Flashcards
Whats Centromere
Chromosomal region where sister cromatids are held together until anaphase
Whats Homologous chromosomes
a set of one maternal and one paternal chromosome that pair up with each other in cell
Tetraploids advantage over Diploids
increased cell size, Hybrid vigor where hybrids are better!!
Tetraploids disadvantage over diploids
Delayed development, Inbreeding depression.
Order the chromosome types by where they are connected
Metacentric, at center
Submetacentric, a bit below
Acrocentric, Near end
Telocentric at the end
whats cell division
the proccess which a parent cell divides between two or more daughter cells
How do mitochondrium and plastids dvide
by binnary fission
Whats Uniparental inheritance
offspring from single parent
Whats biparental inheritance
Offspring from both parent genes
What happens at g1 mitosis
Cell size increase
what happens s in mitosis
DNA replication
What happens at g2
mitochondria and microtubules divide
What happens at prophase
Chromosoms condense
What happens at prometaphase
Nuclear envelope fragments
What happens at metaphase
Chromosomes allign at cells equator
