DAT Cell Division Flashcards
cytokinesis
cytoplasmic division
(karyokinesis)
nuclear division
homologous
chromosomes
are two copies of every
chromosome, forming pairs called
Humans have how many chormosomes
46
how many homologous pairs
23
Animal cells have cellular structures called
centrosomes
what does each centrosome contain a pair of
centrioles
what do centrioles produce
spindle fibers
what are the two main phases of the cell cycle
interphase and mitotic phase
interphase includes what
G1, S, G2
mitotic phase includes what
mitosis and cytokinesis
Interphase begins after…
after mitosis and cytokinesis are complete
(when the cells are replicated and physically separated).
Most
cell growth in volume occurs in what
G1
Cell increases in size and G1 checkpoint ensures
everything is ready for DNA synthesis (cells produce protein,
ribosomes, and mitochondria, replicates organelles).
G1
DNA synthesis occurs in what part
S phase
when are sister chromatids made
s phase
when is DNA replicated
s phase
second molecule of DNA replicated from
the first, creating sister chromatids.
s phase
Rapid cell growth continues to occur.
G2
Preparation of
genetic material for cellular division.
G2
Some organelles replicate.
G2
Inactive state of cells not actively growing or dividing
G0
what kind of cells are found in G0
nerve and cardiac cells
