Q

Describe metaphase

A

Q

When the cell membrane begins to separate

A

Cytokinesis

21
Q

What happends during the G1 phase?

A

Duplicates organelles

22
Q

What happends in the S phase

A

Replication of chromosomes

23
Q

What happends in G2 phase? (2)

A

More organelles duplicated, spindle fibers and centrioles created

24
What is the longest phase?
Interphase
25
Cells stop replicating because they realize that they are already bundled to closely? This is called?
Contact inhibition
26
When Contact inhibition isn't detected , these cells are called?
Cancer cells
27
G1 check point is?
If the cell doesn't replicate what it needs to it commits suicide
28
The G0 phase is?
The state where the cell won't ever divide. Like heart and brain cells
29
Checkpoints are located where?
Before each stage of G1, G2, S, and metaphase
30
Telomeres are needed for what?
Protection of genes
31
What if a cell doesn't have telomeres?
It commits apoptosis
32
Tumors are?
Clumped cancer cells
33
Malignant rumors are?
Tumors that can spread to other parts of the body. Hard to remove
34
Belign tumors are?
Tumors that are easily removed
35
Telomerase does what?
Keeps telomeres from disappearing
36
Disease from not having telomerase?(causes aging)
Progeria
37
In meiosis 1. The middle part where chromosomes connect to one another.
Synaptonemal complex
38
Diploid chromosomes have
92 chromosomes in the nucleus, 2 pairs from your mom and dad
39
Haploid cells are?
Cells that have one set of 46 chromosomes.
40
Crossing over creates
Combinations of genes
41
Crossing over only occurs when?
In meiosis 1
42
The place that breaks and switches genes during crossing over?
Chiasmata
43
Is the process used to create sperm?
Spermatogenisis
44
These protect the 23 chromosome sperm from being attacked by white blood cells?
Setoli cells
45
True or false males and females go through meiosis to create sperm and egg
True
46
Process that females go through to create eggs
Oogenisis
47
An immature egg is a?
Follicle
48
Same meiosis division occurs but what is the difference (oogenisis)?
One cell egg cell is useless because it was given no cell membrane. The other is a replicated egg cell
49
Random fertilization is created by?
Crossing over
