binary fission
A
dividing in half

A
in mitosis the number of chromosomes doesnt change between the parent and each daughter cell
17
Q
what do cells look like in late interphase(G20
A
2 centrosomes- regions where microtubules grow out from each centrosome contains-2centrioles made of microtubules
nuclear envelope is intact
chromosomes are loosely packed(decondensed)
each chromosome consists of 2 identical sister chromatids that are held together by centromere
18
Q
what happenes to cells during prophase
A
first phase of mitosis
nuclear envelope is still present; 4 chromosomes, 8 chromatids
chromosomes are tightly packed(condensed)
two centrosomes are still present
mitotic spindle begins to form
19
Q
what happens during prometaphase
A
second phase of mitosis
centrosomes moved to opposite poles of the cell
chromosomes are tightly packed
NUCLEAR ENVELOPE BREAKS APART
some spindle microtubules bind to kinetochores(proteins) of all chromatids
20
Q
what happens during metaphase
A
third phase of mitosis
two centrosomes are still present
mitotic spindle brings all chromosomes to the middle of the cell
chromosomes align on the metaphase plate
kinetochores of sister chromatids are facing the opposite poles of the spindle
21
Q
metaphase plate
A
imaginary line in the middle of the cell
22

| tumor uses blood and lymphatic vessels to invade other body parts
91
anaphase
4th phase of mitosis
sister chromatids separate from each other and are no longer called sister chromatid they are now called daughter chromosomes
spindle microtubules attached to the kinetochores gets shorter allowing daughter chromosomes to move to the opposite end of the cells

96
cleavage furrow forms outside or inside the cell
forms outside the cell due to the formation of contacting rings or microfilaments
97
contracting rings or microfilaments that occur in cleavage furrow happen inside or outside the cell
inside the cell (actin filaments)
98
what does contracting filaments cause cleavage furrow do to daughter cells
deepen and split parent cells into 2 daughter cells
2 daughter cells are genetically identical to each other and to the parent cell
99

pedigree
128
incomplete dominance
heterozygous genotype has a phenotype that is intermediate between phenotypes of the two homozygotes
129
In snap dragons dominant allele for red flowers is what?
is NOT truly dominant because it can't mask the recessive allele for white flowers from being seen in heterozygous

in fruit flies what determines eye color
gene that determines eye color is located on the X-chromosome
149
how do male flies develop white eyes
they should inherit x-linked recessive allele (white eye allele) from their mom only
150
how do female flies develop white eyes
they should inherit 2x-linked recessive alleles one from each parent
151
why are males more likely to have x-linked disorders than females
because they have only 1x chromosome, while females have 2x chromosomes
