Cells and Cell Structure Flashcards
(40 cards)
Prokaryotes
- Bacteria & Archea
- Unicellular
- No nucleus
- No membrane-bound organelles
Eukaryotes
Eukarya
- Plants
- Animals
- Fungi
- Protists
Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells both have:
- DNA
- Ribosomes
- Plasma Membrane
- Cytoplasm
3 Stages of Interphase
- G1 phase
- S phase
- G2 Phase
What is happening in Interphase?
- Growth
- DNA replication
- Cell function
Mitosis creates…
2 identical daughter cells
46 chromosomes each
92 Chromatids
Produces body cells
Prophase - Mitosis
Chromosomes are condensing
Prometaphase - Mitosis
Nuclear envelope breaks down
Metaphase - Mitosis
“Middle”
Chromosomes line up in the middle
Anaphase - Mitosis
“Away”
Chromosomes are being pulled away to opposite poles
Telophase - Mitosis
“Two”
Chromosomes are at the opposite ends and are being surrounded by new nuclei
PMAT
- Prophase
- Metaphase
- Anaphase
- Telophase
What is Cytokinesis?
Final separation of cytoplasm into two cells
Meiosis creates…
Sex Cells (gametes)
23
Stages of Meiosis
- Prophase 1
- Metaphase 1
- Anaphase 1
- Telophase 1
Prophase 1
Line up with homologous pairs (contain the same gene - eye color for mom and dad)
Crossing over happens
Metaphase 1
Pairs of chromosomes line up in the middle
Prophase II
No homologous pairs or crossing over
Metaphase II
Line up in a straight line - no longer in pairs
Anaphase II
Only chromatids are pulled away
Telophase II
2 cells divide into 4
23 chromosomes each
23 chromatids each
Nondisjunction
When chromosomes do not separate correctly and cells receive too few or too many chromosomes
Spindles attach at the…
Centromere
After PMAT1 you have…
2 Daughter Cells
23 Chromosomes
46 Chromatids
