Chapter 10 Flashcards
Contains 1 set of chromosomes from the ovum and 1 set of chromosomes from the sperm
Zygote
Each set is a _______pair of chromosomes
Homologous
Reduction division
Meiosis
______=reproductive =1n cells=ovum/sperm
Gametes
The code for correct amino acid sequence in proteins
Nucleotide sequence
The version of information for making a specific protein
Allele
Correct number of chromosomes is
Euploid
Changes to euploid ex:monosomies and trisomies
Aneuploidy
Each DNA section that gives information for making a person correctly
Gene
Homologous chromosomes line up across from one another along the metaphase plate is
Metaphase 1
Homologous chromosomes are split
Anaphase 1
Nucleus reforms around one set of chromosomes
Telophase 1
Moving day DNA
Heterochromatin
A short rest period prior to second nuclear division occurring in meiosis II
Interkinesis
Called bivalent because there are
2 chromosomes
Called a tetrad because there are
Sister chromatids in each chromosome
What phase are Sister chromatids are separated
Anaphase II
Nucleus reforms around 1 set of sister chromatids
Telophase II
1n chromosomes (1complete set) line up at the metaphase plate
Metaphase II
A life _____refers to all reproductive events between one generation and next
Cycle
Changes in chromosomes number/structure or gene
Mutation
Failure of one or more chromosomes to separate during meiosis. Causes an abnormal chromosome number in gametes produced.
Nondisjunction
Genotype xxy. Testes and prostate are underdeveloped, no facial hair, and affected individuals are sterile males
Klinefelter syndrome
An individual has only one of a particular type of chromosome
Monosomy
