Main reason that cells divide
|
to reduce the surface area to volume ratio
|
|
Know when DNA is duplicated
|
Interphase
|
|
Effect of Cholchicine
|
stops cell division at metaphase because it dissolves microtubules (no spindle)
|
|
Differences between animal and plant cell division
|
- Animals cells have centrioles
-Plant cells have a cell wall and chloroplasts |
|
Know centrosome, centriole, and cell wall
|
centrioles= 1pair (responsible for the spindle)
centrosomes=2pairs of centrioles cell wall= (2nd layer) |
|
Function of the centromere
|
to join 2 chromatids
|
|
Know what cytokinesis is and when it occurs
|
in the metaphase stage of the cell cycle, cytokinesis follows telophase when the cell membrane and/or cell wall forms, that is called cytokinesis
|
|
Know when the nucleolus disappears
|
prophase
