what are the 5 phases in Mitosis?
1. interphase
2. prophase
3. metaphase
4. anaphase
5. telophase
what is asexual cellular division?
Mitosis
what are the 3 phases in Interphase?
1. g1-> perform normal activities
2. s -> cell duplicates chromosomes;; DNA replication
3. G2-> protein synthesis & centriole production
once G2 is complete, what happens?
cell enters mitosis aka M phase
what happens in Prophase?
-chromosomes condense into 2 -sister chromatids
-centrioles migrate to poles
-nucleus disappear
-spindle apparatus forms
what happens in metaphase?
chromosomes get pulled by spindle apparatus to the equator of cell
what happens in anaphase?
sister chromatids get separated
what happens during telophase?
-nuclear membrane reforms
-chromosomes uncoil into chromatin
-cleavage furrow forms
how does the cleave furrow form?
forms from microtubules than span the cell & slowly tighten
what is the result of telophase?
cytokinesis
what is ctyokinesis?
division of the cytoplasm
when is the cell cycle complete?
at the end of cytokinesis
what happens to the daughter cell after telophase?
they re-enter Interphase
what is Meiosis?
method ensuring all possible combinations of genetic material can occur
in MEIOSIS when does the synapses form?
Prophase 1
what do synapses form from & what do they do?
synapses form from homologues--they allow crossing over to occur
which phase of MEIOSIS do homologues separate?
Anaphase 1
what happens during interkinesis?
no replication of DNA
when do sister cells separate in MEIOSIS?
Anaphase 2
what spermatosgenesis?
making of spermatozoa
what is oogenesis?
Making of ova
if gametes contain same # of chromosomes as cell body, what would happen?
the # of chromosomes would double with each generation
who was Greg Mendell?
scientist that studies inheritance in peas
what are monohybrid crosses?
crosses that involve only 1 trait
what is P generation
original parents
what is the first generation of offspring called?
F1 (stands for filial generation)
how does inheritance able to occur?
by MEISOS
when fertilization occurs, the new organism will have?
2 factors for each trait, 1 from each parent
in genetic notation, how are alleles identified?
by letters
____ is able to mask the expression of another allele
dominant
what is genetic locus?
location of a gene on a chromosome
During MEIOSIS the homologous segregate then______?
the chromotids separate
when an organism has 2 identical alleles it is
homozygous
when an organism has 2 DIFFERENT alleles at gene locus, it is___
Heterozygous
when only 1allele is expressed in a heterozygous, it is?
dominant allele
what is genotype?
alleles individual gets at fertilization
what is phenotype?
physical appearance
when an allele is NOT expressed in heterozygous, it is?
Recessive allele
which would show the dominant phenotype of being tall?
Homozygous dominant & heterozygous
which would show the recessive phenotype & be short?
homozygous recessive
T/F

Inheritance depends on the genome & not individual alleles or even pairs
TRUE
Dominant & recessive are intended for?
phenotype
what is a dominant characteristics?
seen in heterozygous F1
what is a recessive characteristic?
not seen in F1 generation
what is incomplete dominance?
a cross btwn organisms with 2 diff phenotypes produces offspring with a third phenotype that is a blending of the parental traits.
if a red flower crossed with white it would make pink flowers. If these F1 plants self pollinate , what happens to their offspring?
F2 generation has phenotypic ratio 1 red, 2 pink, 1 white

1:2:1
what is co-dominance?
full expression in a heterozygote of both alleles of a pair with neither influenced by the other, as in a person with blood group AB.
how is a phenotype produced?
pair of alleles interact
when does polygenic inheritance occur?
when a trait is controlled by several pairs of alleles::::
Each allele has same degree of influence
____ produces a bell shaped curve. & accounts for the range of phenotypes observed in skin & hair
polygenic inheritance
what are automomes aka autosomal chromosomes?
chromosomes not involved in sex determination
genes that are on the sex chromosomes are called?
sex-linked genes
what reduces the chromosome # from the diploid to the haploid?
MEIOSIS
what provides cynokinesis for animals & plant cells?
animals= cleavage furrow
plants=cell plate
how many cell divisions are in mitosis & MEIOSIS?
mitosis=1
MEOSIS=2
how many daughter cells are produced in mitosis & MEOSIS?
mitosis= (diploid/has 2 chromo in)
MEOSIS=4(haploid/has 1 chromo inside
in Miosis daughter cells are identical, in MEIOSIS they are?
diff
what is the function performed in the body by mitosis & MEOSIS?
Mitosis= growth, develop
MEOSIS= production of gametes
DNA doubles btwn what phase?
g1 & g2
DNA to DNA
replication
a -t
t-a
c-g
g-c
DNA to RNA
transcription
a--u
t---a
c--g
g--c
codon means
code on = mRNA
Semiconservative
half new DNA half original DNA
rRNA
makes peptide bonds or protein
DNA polymerase
add bases of DNA
checks for errors,
-proofread
-& fix DNA

formation of polynucleotides of DNA or RNA using an existing strand of DNA or RNA as a template

copies a piece of DNA. The newly-polymerized molecule is complementary to the template strand and identical to the template's original partner strand
RNA polymerase
Assist DNA polymerase to make DNA & RNA
what is RNA primer
short sequence of nucleotides
added to template DNA strand to initiate transcription of RNA
polygenic
determined by multiple genes
