Q

What are the differences in plant and animal mitosis

A

In plants a new cell wall is fashioned between the new daughter cells, while in animal cells the cell membrane constricts to pinch the parent cell into daughter cells

A

Once

17
Q

Physical evidence of crossing over in homologous chromosomes

A

The chiasmata seen at Diplotene

18
Q

Substance that is present in the cell wall of cork cells

A

Suberin

19
Q

The process that forms specialized cells performing a specific function

A

Cell differentiation

20
Q

Stage of meiosis where crossing over occurs

A

Prophase of meiosis I.

The reason is to increase the diversity of the offspring and make them more genetically distinct

21

A

Rough ER

22
Q

Which is found in plant cells mitochondria or chloroplasts

A

Both

23
Q

Tissue located between the xylem and the Phloem in stem and roots of a vascular plant

A

Vascular cambium

24
Q

Provides extra support, particularly in regions of new growth

A

Cellenchyma

25
Q

Gives rise to primay xylem

A

Protoderm (primary tissue) gives rise to epidermis pro cambium

26
Q

Stages in Miosis where crossing over occurs

A

Prophase of meiosis I

27
Q

Where protein synthesis occurs in plants

A

Rough ER

28
Q

Does procambium undergo cell division

A

Once formed, individual procambia cells can undergo periclinal divisions

29
Q

Does permanent tissue undergo cell division

A

(Permanent) tissues have left the cell cycle and do not undergo cell division.

30
Q

Where is vascular cambium found in plants

A

Located between the xylem and phloem in the stem and root of a vascular plant, and is the source of both the secondary xylem growth
