Mitosis and Meiosis Flashcards
Parts of mitosis by order
Prophase
Metaphase
Anaphase
Telophase
The chromosome has two …
Chromatids
How many telomeres are in a chromosome?
4
G1
Amount of chromosomes-n and DNA-c
2c, 2n
S phase
Amount of chromosomes-n and DNA-c
4c, 2n
Atypical Mitosis - what is different from the typical
Different cells outcome or Mosaicism
What is an hallmark of an endomitosis?
Giant cell - polythene chromosome
Tripolar metaphase - which cells?
Tumor cells
Anaphase lag -
Error - Loss of chromatid during mitosis by lack of kinetochore attachment
Non-disjunction
Causes Aneuploid cells formation: Two mitotitc microtubule from the same side attach to the same chromosome
Could yield Down syndrome
Bridge formation
Attachment to same chromatid from opposing side - yields fragmentation
Non disjunction of all 23 chromosome will cause what number of n in each cell?
In the losing side 2(n-1)
In the winning side 2(n+1)
What is the change in c (dna amount ) in meiosis?
2c-4c-2c-1c
By the end of meiosis 1, what is the number of n?
1n
By the end of meiosis 2, what is the number of n?
1n
