Q

4 stages of mitosis

A

prophase
metaphase
anaphase
telophase

113
Q
  • Construction of the _____________ or ___________ .
  • Transverse segmentation of spireme into chromosomes and their longitudinal splitting into double chromosomes.
  • Disappearance of nucleolus or nucleoli.
  • Formation of the cytoplasmic caps and spindle.
  • Disappearance of nuclear membrane.
A

PROPHASE

chromatic thread or spireme

114
Q
  • arrangement of the double chromosomes at the equatorial plate with their daughter halves drawn apart in V-shaped fashion.
  • Attachment of spindle fibers from poles of spindles to the halves of the chromosomes.
A

metaphase

115
Q
  • Separation of the daughter halves of each double chromosome.
  • Movement of one half of each double chromosome to each of the poles of the spindle.
  • Formation of two dense knots or masses of daughter chromosomes, one at each pole.
A

anaphase

116
Q
  • Expansion of the masses of daughter chromosomes at the poles, their reconversion into a reticulum, and the complete organization of the daughter nuclei.
  • Appearance of one or more nucleoli in each daughter nucleus.
  • Formation of the phragmoplast at the equatorial plate and its subsequent separation by droplet particles.
  • Coalescence of the droplet particles to form a fluid cell plate.
  • Extension of the cell plate to the margin of the mother cell wall, and the division of the mother cell into two daughter cells.
  • Transformation of the fluid cell plate into the middle lamella by the deposition of pectose and cellulose.
A

telophase

117
Q
  • A special type of cell division necessary forsexual reproductionineukaryotes
  • Cells produced by meiosis aregametesorspores
  • the process whereby the diploid number becomes haploid.
A

meiosis or maturation
