Document Summary

In bacteria dna is singe circular chromosome, located in nucleod region. Cell elongates slits into 2 daughter cells division by binary fission. Reproduction may stop under adverse nutritional condition. Eukaryotes: cell division: reproduction-amoeba, growth and development: sand dollar, tissue renewal: dividing bone marrow cells-new blood cells. Each eukaryotic chromosome consists of long, linear dna molecule, which carries 100s- Attached along their length by cohesins (protein complexes) Centromere is the region of chromosomal dna where one chromatid is attached must closely to its sister chromatid. Sister chromatids attached together by cohesins, once separated they are two separate chromosomes. Homologous chromosomes: a pair of chromosomes that carry genes for the same characteristics at the corresponding loci. Karyotype: chromosomes of a cell arranged in pairs and organized by length, shape, position of centromere, banding pattern. Two types of nuclear division occur in many species. The complex cell cycle of a eukaryotic cell is composed of several stages.
