28
Q

What is a summary sentence?

A

It can draw a conclusion based on the topic or sum up the point of earlier text.

29
Q

What happens during meiosis?

A

The original diploid will undergo two divisions to create four haploid cells.

30
Q

What happens during prophase in mitosis?

A

The spindle fibers form as the centrioles move to opposite side of the cell. The nuclear membrane disappears.

31
Q

In what stage of mitosis do the centrioles move to the opposite sides of the cell?

A

Prophase

32
Q

In what stage of mitosis does the nuclear membrane disappear?

A

Prophase

33
Q

What happens during metaphase in mitosis?

A

The chromosomes align midway along the spindle fibers.

34
Q

In what stage in mitosis do the chromosomes align midway along the spindle fibers?

A

Metaphase

35
Q

What happens during anaphase in mitosis?

A

The chromosomes begin to separate from their daughters. Cytokinesis begins.

36
Q

In what phase of mitosis do chromosomes begin to separate from their daughters?

A

Anaphase

37
Q

In which phase of mitosis does cytokinesis begin?

A

Anaphase

38
Q

What happens during telophase in mitosis?

A

Identical sets of chromosomes are at apposite ends of the cell. Spindle fibers disappear, nuclear membranes reappear, and cytokinesis completes.

39
Q

In which phase of mitosis do identical sets of chromosome at opposite ends of the cell?

A

Telophase

40
Q

In which phase of mitosis do spindle fibers disappear, nuclear membranes reappear?

A

Telophase

41
Q

What happens during prophase I in meiosis?

A

Homologous chromosomes condense and link in the process-forming tetrads. This allows crossing over or recombination to occur.

42
Q

What happens during metaphase I in meiosis?

A

Homologous chromosomes move to the metaphase plate.

43
Q

What happens during Anaphase I in meiosis?

A

Homologous chromosomes separate, but the sister chromatids stay together.

44
Q

What happens during Telophase I in meiosis?

A

Cytokinesis has occurred and two haploid daughter cells are the result.

45
Q

What happens during prophase II in meiosis?

A

Spindle fibers begin to reappear and centrioles move to opposite poles.

46
Q

What happens during metaphase II in meiosis?

A

Sister chromatids align at new metaphase plate.

47
Q

What happens during anaphase II in meiosis?

A

Sister chromatids separate again.

48
Q

What happens during telophase II in meiosis?

A

Four haploids result after cytokinesis.

49
Q

What is the order of the different phases in mitosis and meiosis?

A

Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase. Just remember PMAT.

50
Q

What type of sentence is exclamatory?

A

Expresses strong felling and ends with an exclamation point.

51
Q

What type of sentence is declarative?

A

Makes a statement

52
