Mitosis

Interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase


Telophase

Interphase

Doing normal cell activity

Prophase

Nucleus and nucleolus break apart, chromatin material starts to condense to form chromosomes

G1 phase

Growth. Synthesis and other cell activities

S- Synthesis

DNA replication

G2 phase

More proteins produced as cell gets ready to divide

Metaphase

Double chromosomes,


Line up at the equator of the cell each on their own spindle.

Anaphase

Double chromosomes are pulled apart. Go to opposite ends.

Telophase

Chromosomes reach the poles. 2 daughter nuclei form. Nucleus and nucleolus reform. Nuclei are identical.

Cytokinesis

Cytoplasm splits. 2 identical cells form

Meiosis

Forming of gametes (egg and sperm)

Meiosis 1 stages

Meiosis1, interphase, prophase 1, metaphase 1, anaphase 1, telophase 1,

Prophase 1

Nuclear envelope disappears. Spindles form, chromatin material condensed

Metaphase 1

Homologous chromosomes line up on the same spindle. 4 chromatids on each spindle.

Anaphase 1

Homologous chromosomes are pulled to opposite ends

Telophase 1

One of each pair of homologous chromosomes reach the poles. 2n->n . Ends with 2 haploid cells that are different

Meiosis 2

Interkinesis between meiosis 1 and 2

Prophase 2

Nuclear envelope and nucleolus disappear. Spindles form. Chromatic form chromosomes.

Metaphase 2

Double chromosomes line up on their own spindles.

Anaphase 2

Sister chromatids separate. Chromosome move to opposite poles.

Telophase 2

Daughter nuclei form 4 haploid nuclei. Cytokinesis. 4 haploid cells form- different.

Centrioles

Help make spindle fibers in cell division

Spindles

Protein structures

Centromeres

region of a chromosome to which the microtubules of the spindle attach

Sister chromatids

In a double chromosome, one side is called a chromatid, the other is the sister chromatid.

Chromatin

Material like DNA and RNA

Crossing over

The exchange if genes between homologous chromosomes

Tetrad formation

Two homologous chromosomes lining up next to each other during prophase 1

Synapsis

The fusion of chromosome pairs at the beginning of meiosis

Diploid

2 complete sets of chromosomes, one from each parent

Haploid

Single set of unpaired chromosomes

Spermatogenesis

Forming of sperm. 4 spermatids form and then mature and form 4 sperm cells

Oogenesis

Forming of eggs. Only 1 egg produced and 3 polar bodies

Mitosis in plants and animals

In plants- cell plates form


Animals- cleavage furrows form

How many chromosomes are found in somatic cells of humans?

46 chromosomes organized into 23 pairs

Mendels principles

Principle of dominance


Principle of segregation


Principle of independent assortment

Principle of dominance

Characters are inherited in pairs and are controlled by factors- genes

Principle of segregation

The Gene's will separate before the gametes are produced

The principle of independent assortment

The characters on different chromosomes will randomly go into gametes

Alleles

Gene's that govern variations of the same feature located at the same location on homologous chromosomes

Loci

Location

Homozygous

The gene pair is the same- RR or rr

Heterozygous

The gene pair is different- Rr

Genotype

Pair of alleles an individual has

Phenotype

The outward appearance

Linked genes

Traits carried on genes

Polygenetic inheritance

Characteristics determined by an interaction of Gene's on several chromosomes or at several places on 1 chromosome.

Pleiotrophy

1 gene pair affects many traits.

Recessive genotype

individual must have two recessive alleles for the gene that determines this trait of interest.

Barr bodies

densely staining structure in the cell nuclei of female mammals, consisting of a condensed, inactive X chromosome.

Sex influenced trait

Traits that are inherited through autosomes, but expression of alleles at these loci can be altered or influenced by the sex of the animal.

Picture of the chromosome

Karyotype

Used to track family characteristics

Pedigree

having a chromosome number that is more than double the basic or haploid number

Polyploidy

Chromosomes do not separate properly during anaphase 1 or anaphase 2

Nondisjunction

Type of disorders caused by nondisjunction

Down syndrome


Edward's syndrome


Patau syndrome

Female


XO


Monosomy, with only 1 X chromosome. May have learning disabilities, sterile, do not develop secondary traits, no Barr bodies, 45 chromosomes

Turners syndrome

XXY MALE


Have a Barr body on one of the X chromosomes, sterile, may have learning disabilities

Klinefelter syndrome

XXY males


Usually taller than average, heavy acne

Jacob syndrome

XXX female


Usually fertile female, 2 Barr body

Triplo X

Trisomy 21.


Three chromosomes at chromosome 21


Down syndrome

Changing spots when shouldn't be changed

Translocation

Can be controlled by diet. Person lacks an enzyme that converts the amino acid phenylalanine to another amino acid. It is an inborn error of metabolism

PKU- mental retardation

Result of abnormal lipid metabolism in the brain. A lysosomal enzyme is missing, which results in improper liquid metabolism in cells, particularly in the nervous system

Tay-Sach

Results from defective ion transport, due to an abnormal chloride transport protein. Mucus builds up in the respiratory system, pancreas, and reproductive organs

Cystic fibrosis

Results from a hemoglobin defect. RBC is sickle shaped because of an amino acid substitution on the 6th amino acid. Causes cell blocks small venous vessels causing much pain and could shorten life span. Anemia

Sickle- cell anemia

Lacking a blood clotting factor

Hemophilia

Progressive decoration of the nervous system. Starts about 40, usually live 15 years after onset.


Huntington disease

Abnormalities that cause human cells to be lethal

Nondisjunction- can make cells more lethal if occurs in autosomes
