Genetics Flashcards
The nucleolus and nucleus reorganizes and then cytokinesis occurs.
Remember: Mitosis, PMAT
Telophase
The chromosomes are pulled apart by the spindle fibres and move to opposite sides.
Remember: Mitosis, PMAT
Anaphase
Spindle fibres pull the chromosomes to the equatorial plate
Remember: Mitosis, PMAT
Metaphase
Centrioles separate, spindle fibres begin to form, chromosomes coil, shorten and become visible
Remember: Mitosis, PMAT
Prophase
Comparing Mitosis and Meiosis:
Purpose of Process
Mitosis:
cell regeneration, growth, and asexual reproduction
Meiosis:
production of gametes for sexual reproduction
Comparing Mitosis and Meiosis:
Location of Process
Mitosis:
Anywhere within
Meiosis:
Egg and sperm
Comparing Mitosis and Meiosis:
Number of cells made after one division
Mitosis:
Two
Meiosis:
Four
Comparing Mitosis and Meiosis:
Number of chromosomes in daughter cells of a human
Mitosis:
46
Meiosis:
22 + 1 sex cell
