chapter 8- making ATP Flashcards
chromosomes duplicate and one copy moves to opposite side of cell
first step of binary fission (prokaryotic cell division)
cell elongates
step 2 of binary fission
plasma membrane pinches in and more cell wall is made
last step of binary fission
what are chromosomes made of
protein and dna
exact copy of original chromatid attached at the centeomere
sister chromatid
growth, organelles double
G1 of interphase
chromosome replication (synthesis of dna)
S phase of interphase
more growth, and proteins are made
G2 of interphase
thick, condensed chromosomes, nucleus disappears
prophase of mitosis
chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell along invisible metaphase plate
metaphase of mitosis
sister chromatids move to opposite poles
anaphase of mitosis
nucleus reforms at round thick chromosomes and either a cleavage furrow or cell plate appears
telophase of mitosis
what is the purpose of cell division/ reproduction in eukaryotic organisms
to heal/repair
growth and development
asexual reproduction (mitosis)
sexual reproduction (meiosis)
cleavage furrow
occurs in animal cell telophase where membrane pinches in and makes figure 8 shape
cell plate
occurs in a plant cell in telophase and creates cell wall
what is the purpose of meiosis vs mitosis
meiosis is for sexual reproduction (makes gametes) and to reduce chromosome number by half
mitosis is for asexual reproduction
pairs of chromosomes that are similar in size shape and carry the same types of genes, one from each parent
homologous chromosomes
