24
Q

What is the purpose of a centromere?

A

To attach two chromatids in order to form a chromosome

25
Q

What is a genome?

A

The complete set of genetic material in a cell

26
Q

What does a proteosome do?

A

breaks down peptide bonds

27
Q

What is a chaperone protein?

A

Helps unfold or fold structures

28
Q

What is an intron?

A

A sequence of DNA or RNA that does not code for proteins

29
Q

What happens in Metaphase?

A

The chromosomes align in the middle of the cell and cell fibers form, attaching to the centromeres.

30
Q

What happens in Anaphase?

A

The chromatids are pulled away from the middle towards the opposite ends of the cell, the cleavage furrow begins to form

31
Q

What happens in Telophase?

A

Cytokinesis, the spindle fibers disappear

Q

What are some examples of a serous membrane?

A

pleura, peritoneum

39
Q

What are the characteristics of connective tissue?
