Unit 7: DNA & Cellular Division 2 Flashcards
Draw a labeled RNA (3)
Draw a labeled DNA (3)
Compare and contrast mitosis and mitosis (6)
compare: (3)
- Both cell division to create daughter cells from pre-existing cells
- both after interphase
- Both nucleaus divides before cytokenesis
contrast: (3)
- Mitosis has 2 daughter cells / Meiosis has 4 daughter cells
- Mitosis: body cells / Meiosis: sex cells
- Mitosis divides once / Meiosis divides twice
What does the gene 8p4.2.5 mean? (3)
- chromosome 8
- p arm (short arm)
- 4th region, 2nd band, 5th sub band
If a type of tissue has expected mitotic index of 0.17, how many cells in a tissue culture of 7800 cells should be in interphase? (1)
7800 (total) x 0.83 = 6474 cells
Which of these is not a structure or an organelle, but a location in a dividing cell?
Chromatid, Centriole, Centrosome, Kinetochose
CENTROSOME
Mitosis is the divion of the?
Nucleus/chromosomes
Cytokenesis is the division of the?
Cytoplasm
T/F (why)
A human somanic cell is haploid (n), having 23 chromosomes
F
humans: body cell, diploid (2n) → 46 chromosomes
Body vs Sex cells?
Sex cells: cells divided in MEIOSIS
Body cells: cellis divided in MITOSIS
When does DNA replication take place?
S phase
What is gametes?
sperm/eggs
A human __ is ?n, ?ploid, having __ chromosomes?
A human GAMETE is DIPLOID (2N), having 23 chromosomes
kinetechore vs centromere (2)
kinetochore (1): structure attached to centromere during cell division
centromere (1): narroa place where 2 sister chromatids become associated (paired) during cell division
2 discoveries by John Cairns (2)
- The prokaryotic chromosome DNA is circular (1)
- DNA replication is bidirectional (1)
When in cell cycle do cells grow and differentiate?
G1
What does G2 try to prevent?
Cells starting M phase before they’re ready
Each daughter cell is __ploid and have __ chromosomes
Each daughter cell is HAploid and have 23 chromosomes
When/where can a ‘cell plate’ be seen?
in a PLANT cell during late telophase/cytokinesis
Effect of independent assortment of cells?
Homologous chromosomes line up in Metaphase I randomly, so the different assortments will cause GENETIC VARIATION
What is autoradiography? Discovered by?
- Discovered by John Cairns
- tool to visualize uncondensed DNA
Mitosis vs Meiosis?
Mitosis: Division of BODY (SOMANTIC) cells, 2 diploid identical daughter cells
Meiosis: Division of SEX ( GAMETES) cells, 4 diploid diff daughtercells
Purpose of S phase?
DNA replication
