33
Q

during this phase, chromosomes uncondense, new nuceloli appear, and spindle depolymerizes and disappears

A

telophase

34
Q

no matter how the protoplast divides, each half typically contains what important cell membranes?

A

mitochondria, plastids, endoplasmic reticulum, and vacuoles

35
Q

during this phase, the preprophase band forms just inside the plasma membrane

A

prophase

36
Q

during this phase, the plane of division is identified, and the region where the new cell wall will attach to is marked

A

prophase

37
Q

this is a set of short microtubules that forms in the center of the cell

A

phragmoplast

38
Q

this traps dictyosome vesicles

A

phragmoplast

39
Q

these are called the cell plate; grows outward until they fuse with those of a mother cell

A

phragmoplast, vesicle, and walls

40
Q

this kind of division is accomplished with a phragmosome

A

vacuole division

41
Q

vacuole division is accomplished with?

A

a phragmosome

42
Q

this is a set of microtubules, actin filaments, and cytoplasm

A

phragmosome

43
Q

this is referred to as reduction division

A

meiosis

44
Q

this is referred to as duplication division

A

mitosis

45
Q

what must be done to produce a diploid zygote?

A

haploid sex cells (gametes) must fuse together

46
Q

this only occurs in the production of reproductive cells

A

meiosis

47
Q

how many rounds of division is involved in meiosis?

A

two i.e. meiosis I and meiosis II

48
Q

during meiosis, which phase does not occur after the first division?

A

S phase

49
Q

prophase I is divided into five stages, namely:

A

(LZPDD) leptotene, zygotene, pachytene, diplotene, and diakinesis

50
Q

during this phase in meiotic division, chromosomes begin to condense and become distinguishable but indistinct

A

prophase I

51
Q

in meiotic division (prophase I), this stage is characterized by the synapsis of homologs

A

zygotene

52
Q

this structure is present between the paired homologous chromosomes

A

synaptonemal complex

53
Q

a synapsed pair of homologous chromosomes is called?

A

54
Q

during this stage in meiotic division (prophase I), chromosomes shorten and thicken

A

pachytene

55
Q

during this stage in meiotic division (prophase I), the homologous chromosomes move away from each other but are held together by the centromeres

A

diplotene

56
Q

this is the area of crossing over; a point where chromosomes are tangled together

A

chiasmata

57
Q

during this stage in meiotic division (prophase I), the homologs continue to separate, and the chiasmata move toward ends until they untangle

A

diakinesis

Q

this phase is wherehs the spindle microtubules move the homologs to the center of the cell, forming a metaphase plate

metaphase I

59
Q

this phase involves the separation of homologs, moving to opposite ends of the spindle; two haploid nuclei have formed
