Q

What is the order of the phases in the cell cyle?

A

G1 —-> S —–> G2 ——> M Phase

18
Q

In the G1 Phase what happens?

A

A cell is prepared to divide & reach a restriction point before S phase

19
Q

After a cell past the restriction point what happens in the S phase?

A

The chromosomes are replicated & after its replicated the two copies are called chromatids where they are joined together at the centromere to make a sister chromatid (pair of chromatids)

20
Q

Unless it says ______ of chromosmes then a chromosomes is just one singular chromosome (not two)

A

Pair

21
Q

Unless it says ____________ a chromatid is just one singular chromatid (chromosome) not 2 just one

A

Suster Chromatids

22
Q

After the S phase what happens?

A

A cell has twice as many singular chromatids (Chromosomes) than it did in the G1 phase

23
Q

During the G2 Phase what happens?

A

A cell accumulates the materials needed for nuclear cell division

24
Q

What is the formula for a diploid cell ?

A

2n (n = # of chromosomes)

25
Q

What happens in the M phase?

A

The sister chromatids (replicated chromosomes) are distributed into two cell nucleus so that daughter cell recieves the same amount of sister chromatids (Chromosome pairs)

26
Q

After Mitosis ___________ occurs where the cell completely divides to form two daugther cells

A

Cytokinesis

27
Q

What are the phases of Mitosis?

A
  1. Prophase
  2. Prometaphase
  3. Metaphase
  4. Anaphase
  5. Telophase
28
Q

What happens in metaphase?

A

The pairs of sister chromatids align in the middle of the cell along the metaphase plate from head to tail in a single row where the homologous pair dont pair up with its similar sister chromatid

29
Q

What happens in Anaphase

A

The centromere between the sister chromatids is broken & the individual chromosome (chromatid) goes to its independent dell

30
Q

_____________ produces two new diploid cells (Somatic Cell)

A

Mitosis

31
Q

Mitosis

A

Produces two new diploid cells

32
Q

Cytokinesis

A

Splits the cell into 2 new dipliod cells (in mitosis)

33
Q

Meiosis

A

1st Produces four haploid cells (Sex cells)

34
Q

_____________ contains one chromsome per set instead of two

A

Gametes (haploid cells)

35
Q

What are the two cell divisions of meiosis?

A
  1. Meiosis 1
  2. Meiosis 2
36
Q

What are the phase in Meosis 1 & 2 ?

A
  1. Prophase 1 (2)
  2. Prometaphase 1 (2)
  3. Metaphase 1(2)
  4. Anaphase 1 (2)
  5. Telophase 1 (2)
37
Q

What happens during metaphase 1 in meiosis 1?

A

The pair of chromsome (sister chromatids) are randomly align in the metaphase plate in a double row where the homologous pair of each sister chromatid is next to each other (side by side)

38
Q

What happens during Anaphase 1 in meiosis 1?

A

The two pairs of sister chromatids seperate where each pair of sister chromatids goes to their side on the pole

39
Q

After meiosis 1 what happens?

A

Meiosis 2 occurs where those independent sister chromatids are align in the middle of the cell in a single row from head to tail (like mitosis) & seperate where each singular chromatids goes to its individual pole

40
Q

What is the first difference between Mitosis & Meiosis?

A

The difference between Mitosis & Meiosis is that Meiosis has 2 cell division Mitosis has 1, Mitosis produce diploid cell (2 diploid) meiosis produce haploid cells (4 haploid)

41
Q

What is the 2nd difference Mitosis & Meiosis?

A

The two diploid cells that are produced from Mitosis are clones & the 4 haploid cells produce form Meiosis are not identical & crossing over an occur in meiosis to give recombinant genes which can’t happen mitosis
