MITOSIS & MIEOSIS Flashcards
1
Q
What is the function of Mitosis?
A
Growth, repair, maintenance
2
Q
Interphase (Mitosis)
A
Active cell conducting normal functions
3
Q
Prophase (Mitosis)
A
- Replication of chromosomes
- Nuclear membrane dissolves
- Chromosomes become visible
- Centrioles move toward poles
- Spindle fiber production
4
Q
Metaphase (Mitosis)
A
- sister chromatids align at the equator
- centrioles at poles
- spindle fibers attach to centromeres
5
Q
anaphase (Mitosis)
A
- sister chromatids pulled to poles (karyokinesis)
- cell furrows
6
Q
telophase (Mitosis)
A
- cell divided (cytokensis)
- nuclear membrane forms
- chromosomes disappear
- spindle fibers dissolve
- centrioles move through cell
7
Q
what is the function of meiosis?
A
production of gametes
8
Q
Prophase I (Meiosis)
A
- replication of chromosomes
- nuclear memebrane dissolves
- chromosoes become visible
- centroils move toward poles
- spindle fiber production
- chiasmata form
9
Q
Metaphase I (Meiosis)
A
- homologous chromosomes align at equator
- centrioles at poles
- spindle fibers attach to centromeres
10
Q
Anaphase I (Meiosis)
A
- homologues pulled to poles
- cell furrows
- chiasmata broken
11
Q
Telophase I (meiosis)
A
- cell divides
- nuclear membrane forms
- spindle fibers dissolve
centrioles move through cell
12
Q
Prophase II (meiosis)
A
- nuclear membrane dissolves
- centrioles move toward poles
- spincle fiber production
13
Q
Metaphase II (Meiosis)
A
- sister chromotids align at equator
- centrioles at poles
- spincle fibers attach to centromeres
14
Q
Anaphase II (meiosis)
A
- Sister chromatids pulled to poles
- cell furrows
15
Q
Telophase II (Meiosis)
A
- cell divides
- nuclear membrane forms
- spindle fibers dissolve
- centrioles move through cell
