week 12 Flashcards
sperm goes from
vagina to cervix to uterus to the fallopian tube to the ovum
ovum is released from the
ovary
to
the fallopian tube to get fertilized, then plant itself in the womb
when the duplication of cell material in ‘ciliate division’ is complete
the cell walls close in preparation for fission
then the Ciliate divides into two equate parts
total time for cell division
“30 minutes”
meiosis
the process that generates gamines
gamines
sexual reproduction cells (eggs and sperm)
within the nucleus of a testicle diploid cell
the chromosomes are dispersed
diploid chromosomes are dispersed until…
meiosis begins
there are two copies of each…
chromosome
each pair of chromosomes are called a
homologous pair
red chromosome from the…
maternal parent
blue chromosome from the…
paternal parent
during interphase
chromosomes duplicate inside the nucleus
interphase show that each chromosome
has identical sister chromotids attached at the centromere
meiosis 1 begins with
prophase 1
prophase 1
chromosomes become condensed
homologous chromosomes pair up
crossing over
an event that can happen during chromosomes being condensed,
in which the genes of the chromosomes will combine in strange and new ways
after meiosis 1, prophase 1 comes…
meiosis 1, metaphase 1
metaphase 1
the nuclear envelope is broken down
the spindle spans across the cell, connecting both ends of the cell
as well as attaching to, and aligning, the homologous pairs
the spindle grows
as both ends of the cell synthesizes tubulin protein, creating mictrotubules
attached to each chromosomes centromere is
a kinetocore
kinetocore
part of the chromosome that attaches to, and moves along, microtubules
microtubules
the strings of protein that connects to a homologs kinetocore
after meiosis 1, metaphase 1 comes…
meiosis 1, Anaphase 1
