General Biology 2 Flashcards
- first stage of cell division
- makes identical body cells like skin cells and stomach cells
- ______ is important for growth and for repair of damage or to replace worn out cells
Mitosis
- ______ is called reduction division because of having a starting cell that has 46 chromosomes
and ending cells which is the sperm and egg cells that has 23 chromosomes. - a process that contributes to genetic variety
- it makes sperm and egg cells otherwise known as gametes
- before ______ the first happens is interphase
Meiosis
in between process, is when the cell starts growing, dna is replicating and carrying
out the cell process
Interphase
longest phase take up of 50% to 60% where chromosomes are going to condense
and thicken
Prophase
chromosomes are going to be align at the middle of the cell
Metaphase
- chromosomes are pulled away because of spindle fibers
Anaphase
- chromosomes completely separated and you have two newly formed nuclei ending
with two cells
Telophase
- second stage of cell division, responsible for the final separation into cells by
splitting the cytoplasm which completes after the pmat.
Cytokinesis
during this phase cells grows physically larger, copies organelles
G1-phase
- cells grows more, makes proteins and organelles and begins to recognize its
content in preparation for mitosis begins
G2-phase
are the regions of dna where the sister chromatids are most tightly connected
Centromeres
the two pole
Centriole
is where centriole attach and the one who pulled the chromosomes away
Spindle
- identical copies of piece of DNA using restriction enzymes
DNA Cloning
cuts the dna/gene that you clone
Restriction Enzyme
- is a piece of genetic material that sits outside of the chromosomes but it can
reproduce along or replicate itself, _____ tends to be circular dna
Plasmid
- is to connect the backbone in the plasmids it helps to do the pasting
DNA ligase
a type of organism (bacteria) it is typically use
E. Coli
- is when you apply this some of that bacteria is going to take in the plasmid
Heat Shock
a biotechnology, it provides a way to make more copies of a
portion of DNA, it doesn’t need to happen in cell, it can happen in test tube
Polymerase chain reaction (pcr)
helps dna polymerase, a building enzyme know when to go starting
Primers
- used often a heat resistant type of DNA polymerase as pcr uses heat
DNA Polymerase
a type of heat resistant dna polymerase
Taq Polymerase
- is originally from a type of bacteria that can handle and live in really high temperatures in
nature in hot springs
Taq
