mitosis Flashcards
1
Q
G1(cell growth)
A
AKA: 1st gap
normal everday cells
2
Q
G2
A
AKA: 2nd gap
microtubules/centioles (in centresome)
what cell needs to do mitosis
3
Q
S (DNA synthesis)
A
replicates DNA (chromosomes makes copy of themselves)
4
Q
prophase
A
- chromosomes condense(DNA)
- Nuclear membrabe disspears(breaks down)
- centisomes move to opp. sides of cell
- spindle starts to form
5
Q
metaphase
A
- longest stage of mitosis
- chromosomes line up on equational plate
- centrosome at one spindle pole
6
Q
Kinetochore
A
- protein that connects spindle fiber to chromosomes
- in centomere region
7
Q
all the DNA constitutes the cells _____
A
genome
8
Q
DNA molecules are packaged into __________
A
chromosomes
9
Q
to count chromosomes, count____
A
centromere
10
Q
Phases of cell cycle
A
Mititotic phase (M) (10%) (mitosis and cytokinesis)
Interphase (90%- cell growth and copying of chromosomes)
- G1 (cell growth)
- G2 (mirotubules/centrioles)
- S (DNA synthesis)(chromosomes make copy’s of themselves)
Prophase
Metaphase
Anaphase
telophase
Cytokinesis
11
Q
Anaphase
A
- fastest stage
- chromosomes pulled to opposite sides
- chromatids seperate from each other at centromere
- go from having 2 chromatids chromosome to two 1 chromatid chromosome
* KINETECHORE walks chromosme back ro centromere region
12
Q
Telophase
A
- opposite of prophase
- cytoplasm divided into 2 cells(cytokinesis)
13
Q
Cytokinesis
A
- in animal cells, occurs by a cleavage, forming a cleavage furrow
- in plant cells, a cell plate forms
14
