Q

what is a centrosome

A

region where the centriole pairs are located

33
Q

what does centrosome establish

A

your poles

34
Q

what happens during cytokinesis

A

cell division

35
Q

what is the goal of prophase

A

gain access to the chromosomes in the nucleus

36
Q

what happens during prophase

A

nuclear envelope dissolves
centrosomes move to opposite poles
mitotic spindle push the centrosomes move to opposite poles
sister chromatids begin to coil tightly

37
Q

what happens during metaphase

A

chromosomes align in a plane
each sister chromatids attaches to spindle microtubules at the centromere

38
Q

what happens during anaphase

A

sister chromatids split apart at the centromere
each chromatid pulled toward the centrosome
cell becomes visibly elongated

39
Q

what happens during telophase

A

reverse of 1st 3 steps
chromosomes unravel
mitotic spindles dissolve
nuclear envelopes form around chromosomes

40
Q

which cell s have the cleavage furrow

A

animals

41
Q

which cells have the phase plate

A

plants

42
Q

what happens during cytokinesis

A

physically seperate right down the cleavage furrow

43
Q

what is cancer

A

mitosis on steriods

44
Q

what do checkpoints do

A

check for errors before replication

45
Q

what happens if an error is found at a checkpoint

A

apoptis

46
Q

what is apoptis

A

programmed cell death

47
Q

does cancer have checkpoints

A

no

48
Q

cancer is uncontrolled

A

cell division

49
Q

what are sources of genetic mutations

A

exposure to carcinogens
DNA copy error
genetic inheritance from parents
viruses
your environment

50
Q

what types of tumors are there

A

benign and malignant

51
Q

what do benign tumors do

A

grows but doesn’t invade

52
Q

what do malignant tumors do

A

cancer that invades tissues

53
Q

what are some cancer treatments

A

tumor removal
chemotherapy
radiation therapy

54
Q

A

46

55
Q

how many chromosomes do you end with in meiosis

A

23

56
Q

meiosis undergoes how many rounds of division

A

2

57
Q

which meiosis looks most similar to mitosis

A

meiosis 2

58
Q

are gametes haploid or diploid

A

haploid

59
Q

male is

A

xy

60

61
Q

what is the steps of meiosis 1 in order

A

interphase
prophase 1
metaphase 1
anaphase 1
telophase 1
cytokinesis

62
Q

what happens during interphase 1

A

double chromosomes

63
Q

what happens in prophase 1

A

homologous chromosomes pair up and cross over segments

64
Q

what happens in metaphase 1

A

pairs of homologous chromosomes line up in independent assortment

65
Q

what happens in anaphase 1

A

pair of homologous chromosomes split upw

66
Q

what happens in telophase 1 and cytokinesis

A

2 haploid cells form and chromosomes are still doubled

67
Q

what happens in meiosis 2

A

the same steps in meiosis 1 but end up with 4 haploid cells that are diverse

68
Q

what are the origins of genetic variation

A

crossing over
independent assortment of chromosomes
random fertlization

69

what is crossing over

A

homologous chromosomes exchange peices of genetic info and forms new genetic combinations

when does crossing over occur

A

meiosis 1 and prophase 1

71

occurs in meiosis 1 and metaphase 1

72
