CELL DIVISION AND THE HUMAN LIFE CYCLE (3) Flashcards
(39 cards)
autosomes
are the 22 pairs of chromosomes that control traits unrelated to gender
karotype
picture of all chromosomes in their pairs
kromotid
copy of chromosomes held together by centromere
kromatin
DNA and proteins held together in a circle
phrophase
phase nucleus breaks
telephase
phase that puts the nucleus back together
cell division
meosis and mitosis
cell cycle
interphase and cell division together
interphase part
cell cycle not division
homogenous
meiosis line up equator pairs
antephase 1
pulling apart amologous pairs
antephase 2
pullings apart sister chromosomes
meosis
sexual reproduction by 1/2 the genetic material
sister chromosomes
held together by cuntromers
mitosis
growth and repair- identical genetic material
cell cycle
somatic cell division increases the number of cells in the body
apoptosis
programmed cell death
interphase
the cell gets ready to divide
mitosis
start with 46 and end with 46 chromosomes
- prophase-cell breaks up
- metaphase- nucleus lines up in the center
- anaphase- sister chrome separate (each side has identical copy)
- telophase- start to pull nucleus back together
sister chromatids
chromosome duplicates and is composed of two identical parts
centromere
holds double chromosomes together
centrosome
duplicates and migrates to opposite ends of the cell forming the poles
centrioles
short cylinders found in the centrosome and assist in the formation of spindle fibers
prophase
chromosomes become visible
- nucleolus disappears
- nuclear envelope fragments
- centrosomes move to opposite sides of the cell
- aster and spindle fibers radiate out from centrioles
- spindle fibers attach to centromeres
