cytoplasm divides
|
cytokinesis
|
|
stages of mitosis
|
1) Prophase
2) Metaphase 3) Anaphase 4) Telophase 5) Cytokinesis |
|
stages of interphase
|
1) G1-phase
2) S-phase 3) G2-phase |
|
G1-phase
|
growth phase, 1 copy of each chromosome
|
|
S-phase
|
DNA is duplicated (2 sister chromatids)
|
|
prophase (mitosis)
|
1) DNA coils tightly - chromosomes shorten and thicken
2) microtubules assemble to form mitotic spindle 3) nuclear envelope disappears |
|
metaphase (mitosis)
|
1) chromosomes attach to the spindle
2) chromosomes align in center of all - metaphase plate 3) each sister chromatid attached to opposite pole |
|
anaphase (mitosis)
|
1) sister chromatids separate and move to opposite poles
2) sister chromatids become individual chromosomes |
|
telophase (mitosis)
|
1) cells look like dumbell - chromosomes at both ends
2) spindle falls apart 3) nuclear envelope re-forms |
|
cytokinesis (mitosis)
|
1) cytoplasm is divided
2) cell is pinched in middle 3) 1 cell is now2 |
|
structure made up of microtubules
|
mitotic sprindle
|
|
23 chromosomes
|
haploid
|
|
46 chromosomes
|
diploid
|
|
mitosis
|
makes 2 identical cells
basis of asexual reproduction and multicellularity |
|
meiosis
|
makes 4 haploid cells from 1 diploid pre-meiotic cell
basis of sexual reproduction |
|
Interphase I
|
1) Chromosomes duplicate
2) duplicated chromosomes - 2 sister chromatids attached at centromere |
|
Prophase I
|
1) larger, more complex than in mitosis
2) chromosomes condense 3) synapsis - homologous chromosomes pair up 4) crossing over - homologous chromosomes exchange parts 5) nuclear envelope disappears |
|
leptonema/leptoene stage
|
replicated chromosomes become visible s threads and chromomeres
|
|
zygotema/zygotene stage
|
active pairing/synapsis
|
|
pachynema/pachyteme stage
|
homologous chromosomes shorten and thicken, chromosomes synapse and crossing over occurs (diplotene chiasmata)
|
|
diakenises
|
condensation complete, attachment to spindle, nuclear envelope disappears
|
|
Metaphase I
|
1) homologous pairs of chromosomes align on metaphase plate
2) the chromosomes of the homologous pair are attached to opposite poles |
|
Anaphase I
|
1) homologues separate and are moved to opposite poles by the spindle
2) sister chromatids remain attached at centromere |
|
Telophase I and Cytokinesis
|
1) spindle apparatus moves chromosomes to opposite poles
2) haploid set of chromosomes/2sister chromatids 3) cytokinesis 4) --> meiosis 2 |
|
Prophase II
|
1) mitotic spindle forms
2) chromosomes are condensed |
|
Metaphase II
|
1) individual chromosomes align on metaphase plate
2) sister chromatids are attached at opposite poles |
|
Anaphase II
|
1) sister chromatids separate at their centromeres
2) sister chromatids move to opposite poles of the cell 3) following separation, sister chromatids become individual chromosomes |
|
Telophase II and Cytokinesis
|
1) Nuclei form at opposite poles of the cell
2) cytokinesis occurs to form 4 daughter cells |
|
euchromatin
|
chromatin or chromosomal regions That are lightly staining and are relatively uncoiled during the interphase portion of the cell cycle. Euchromatic regions contain most of the structural genes.
|
|
Heterochromatin
|
The heavily staining, late-replicating regions of chromosomes that are condensed in interphase. Thought to be devoid of structural genes
