Q

what happens in interphase

A

Chromatin is unwound
Here the cell grows in preparation for cell division.
Note the position of the centrioles.

Q

what happens in prophase

A

Chromosomes become visible through a microscope.
Spindles begin to form.
Nuclear membrane disappears.
Centrioles begin moving toward the poles.
The chromosomes replicate and are seen as a pair of sister chromatids.

Q

what happens in metaphase

A

he chromosomes, guided by the spindle fibers, line up in the middle of the dividing cell.
The centrosomes are at opposite ends (poles) of the cell.

Q

centrosome

A

an organelle near the nucleus of a cell that contains the centrioles (in animal cells) and from which the spindle fibers develop in cell division.

Q

what happens in anaphase

A

The two sister chromatids of each chromosome are pulled apart by the spindle fibers.
Chromosomes move away from each other toward the poles.

Q

what happensi n telophase

A

the chromosomes have reached the poles.
Two new nuclear membranes form around each of the two separated sets of chromosomes.

Q

What happens in the M phase

A

mitosis occurs and 1 hour

22
Q

what phases of the cell cycle are part of interphase?

23
Q

When does the nuclear membrane start to disapear.

24
Q

when is the nuclear membrane completely gone.

25
When does the DNA duplicate
interphase
26
mitosis
the separation of the nucleus to create 2 identical nuclei.
27
Sexual reproduction
the production of an off spring with 2 parents,
28
asexual reproduction.
the production of an offspring only including one parent,
29
fission
a single cell splits into 2 cells (only in prokaryotic cells/bacteria.
30
budding
offspring grows off a organism
31
gene
a sequence of nitrogen bases that codes for the synthesis of one protein .instructions for making proteins
32
mRNA
messenger RNA.Transcribes DNA instruction and brings the info to the ribosomes.
33
tRNA
translates the coded instructions and brings certain amino acids to the chromosomes.
34
amino acids
found throughout genetic code and brought to the ribosomes to create proteins.
35
synthesis.
the process of combining two or more things
36
dehydration synthesis
connecting of amino acids to create protiens.
37
transcription
change form of DNA writing
38
translation
makes amino acids into protiens
39
regeneration
a piece of an organism is used to produce an offspring.
40
spore formation
an organism releases specialized cells called spores.If they land in a favorable sport they will develop into offspring (mold)
41
vegative propogation
a piece of a plant cutting is used to produce another plant.
42
gamete
sex cell
43
sperm
fertilizes the egg to create a zygote.
44
egg
helps the fertilization process to create a zygote.
45
meiosis
a form of cell divison where the cell doesn't go through interphase therefore the daughter cell created only get half the DNA from the parent cell.
46
zygote
a diploid cell produced after fertilization
47
haploid
one set of chromosomes
48
diploid
a cell that contains 2 sets of chromosomes from each parent.
49
DNA
the master copy of genetic instruction for making protiens. contains genes.
50
What are the results of mitosis
2 daughter cells
51
what is the francus watson and crick model.
DNA strands
