Prophase II

A

No homologous pairs or crossing over

19
Q

Metaphase II

A

Line up in a straight line - no longer in pairs

20

Telophase II

A

2 cells divide into 4
23 chromosomes each
23 chromatids each

22
Q

Nondisjunction

A

When chromosomes do not separate correctly and cells receive too few or too many chromosomes

23
Q

Spindles attach at the…

23
Q

After PMAT1 you have…

A

2 Daughter Cells
23 Chromosomes
46 Chromatids

23
After PMAT2 you have...
4 Daughter Cells 23 Chromosomes 23 Chromatids
24
Two things typically present in a bacterial cell but not in a virus?
DNA & Ribosomes
25
Haploid Cells
1 set of chromosomes Meiosis Sex cells
26
Diploid Cells
2 sets of chromosomes Mitosis Non-sex cells
27
Where does binary fission occur?
Asexual reproduction in Prokaryotes, Bacteria and single-celled Eukaryotes
28
At a typical DNA replication fork, the parental strands are separated from each other by...
Helicase Enzyme
29
What features of meiosis contribute to genetic variation in a species?
crossing over, independent assortment, and random fertilization create genetic diversity
30
Nucleosome
A section of DNA that is wrapped around a core of proteins
31
What is the function of nucleosomes?
They help supercoil DNA - nucleosomes are a unit of chromatin wrapped around 8 histone proteins
32
3 tenets of Cell Theory
1. All living things are made of cells 2. Cells are the basic unit of life 3. New cells come from existing cells (during mitosis)
33
What happens is the G1stage of interphase?
Growth and replication of organelles
34
What happens in the S stage of interphase?
The cell makes a complete copy of the DNA
35
What happens in the G2 stage of interphase?
Growth and preparation for mitosis
36
Positive feedback loop
Pushes the body to change away from a starting point
37
Negative feedback loop
Brings the body back to the starting point (temperature regulation)
38
Negative feedback loop
Brings the body back to the starting point (temperature regulation)
