17
Q

M Phase

A

-period of cell division

18
Q

Mitosis

A

-process of nuclear division

19
Q

FOUR phases of Mitosis

A

1) anaphase
2) metaphase
3) prophase
4) telephase

20
Q

Prophase

A
  • chromosomes condense
  • nucleus disappears
  • mitotic spindle forms
  • chromosomes MIXED up
21
Q

Late Prophase

A
  • nuclear envelope disappears

- spindle attaches to CHROMOSOMES at centromere

22
Q

Metaphase

A

-chromosomes align in MIDDLE of cell

23
Q

Anaphase

A
  • centromeres DIVIDE

- 2 chromatids are pulled apart by SPINDLE

24
Q

Telephase

A

-chromosomes arrive at opposite poles

nuclear envelopes REappear around each set of chromosomes

-spindle dissolves

25
Cytokinesis
- division of cytoplasm | - differs in plant & animal cells
26
Animal Cells
- divide from OUTSIDE in | - ring pinches cell, forming trench that splits cell
27
Plant Cells
- divide from INSIDE out - central cell plate forms - splits cell
28
Life Cycle of eukaryotes: process which...
young individual matures/reproduces
29
ALL clones produced by ______
mitosis
30
Some animals reproduce asexually by
budding / regeneration
31
Many organisms can switch between ______ & ______ reproduction
sexual & asexual
32
Sexual Reproduction
fusion of gametes (sex cell), produced in specialized structures
33
Ovaries
- produce eggs | - found in animals & flowering plants
34
Sperm are produced in the _____ of animals & ______ of flowering plants
testes / anthers
35
In some species, each individual produces only one kind of gamete, but in
many species, each adult can produce BOTH kinds
36
Fertilization
- results in single cell Zygote | - hereditary info from both parents unite
37
Zygote undergoes development...
period of rapid mitosis & cellular specialization
38
In animals, gametes come from _____ cells
germ
39
GERM CELLS***
- REPRODUCTIVE cell found in reproductive organ | - becomes GAMETES
40
SOMATIC CELLS***
- BODY cells | - everything BUT reproductive cells
