Cytology Flashcards
Membranes (Plasmalemma) are amphiphilic:
Polar head and non polar tail
Facultative dividers
cells that usually dont do mitosis, only when it is necessary
–> liver cells
Interphase
No cell division
Three phases: S; M, G
M –> G1 Phase –> S –> G2 Phase
Terminally differentated cells g into G0 after M
G1
Cell Differentiation
Gene transcription
S
DNA replication
G2
Preparation for mitotic division
Sister chromatids
identical chromosomes resulting the S Phase
connected on centromere
Kinetochore
attachment for microtubules of cell spindle
at the centromere
Types of Stem cells
Totipotent
Multipotent
Unipotent
Phases of Mitosis
Prophase: chromosomes coil, centrioles move to poles
Prometaphase: chromosomes attach to spindle
Metaphase: line up
Anaphase: Splitting, centrioles are pulled
Telophase: Chromosomes uncoil
Cytokinesis: Cleavaga furrow
Steps of Meiosis
Prophase I: Crossing over –> Chiasma Formation
Metaphase I and Anaphase: first divisioj
Metaphase II: second division
Anaphase II and Telophase II: Chromatids go to poles
Meiosis in males:
four cells develop into mature stermatozoon
Meiosis in females
One Ovum and three polar bodies
