Q

What happens during prometaphase?

A

16
Q

What happens during metaphase?

A

Chromosomes aligned at equator

Sister chromatids attach to opposite poles of the spindle

17
Q

What happens during anaphase?

A

Synchronously seperate sister chromatids to form 2 chromosomes,
Pulled towards spindle
Kinetochore microtubles get shorter
Spundle pole moves apart

18
Q

What happens during telophase

A

Daughter chromosomes arive at spindle poles and decondense

Nuclear envelope reaasmebles

19
Q

What make up the microtubules from the centromere?

A

Motor proteins on polar MT’s
Kinetochore MTs
Astral MTs

20
Q

What yeast has a typical eukaryotic cell cycle?

A

S.pombe

21
Q

What budding yeast has a different cell cycle?

A

S.cerevisiae, no G2 phase

22
Q

What complex promotes metaphase-anaphase transition?

A

Anaphase promoting complex

23
Q

What does anaphase promoting complex do?

A

Cause degredation of cyclin cdk complex by adding uniquitin chain

24
Q

What molecule can stimulate proliferation?

A

Mitogens, such as platelet derived growth factor for wound healing

25
Q

What are the 5 stages of prophase I

A

Leptotene (condense), Zygotene (synapse), Pachytene (cross over), Diplotene (migrate) and Diakinesis
