Science Quiz Mitosis Flashcards
(16 cards)
When does DNA Replication happen
Inter phase
What do we call two chromosomes with the same genes
Homologous
Numbers of chromosomes called
haploid number
What produces gametes
Meiosis
Somatic Cells are called
body cells
Chromosomes are called
Homologous pairs
Diploid cells have and are known as
Somatic cells with 46 chromosomes
HAploid cells are known as
gametes that contain 23 chromosomes
The process of meiosis involves
One Replication and two divisions which is decided to two process Meiosis one and Meiosis 2.
Meiosis 1
Chromosomes replicate and the first divisions occurs
Meiosis 2
Second division occurs
During Prophase 1 in Meiosis
SIster chromosomes condense and attach to centromere Homologus chromosomes pair up chromatids chross over Nuclear membrane disappears and spindle fibers form.
Metaphase 1
Chromatids line up a long the equator forming a double file line and a single file one in Metaphase 2 Chromsomes attach to centrioles by spindle fibers.
Anaphase
Chromatids separate and go to opposite sides each side has half the number of chromosomes
Chromatid means
Pair of chromosomes
Telophase
Two daughter cells prodouced during first stage 4 in the second each contain 23 chromosomes During second stage chromosomes now single stranded.
