Document Summary

Cytokinesis: actual process of dividing one cell into two, animal cells, use a contractile ring composed of. Actin microfilaments: myosin motor proteins, contract radially to pinch cell into two, cleavage furrow. Chromosome terminology: in g1: 46 one chromatid chromosomes (in human cells, the chromosomes are in pairs, 1 from mom, 1 from dad, each pair of chromosomes are referred as homologs or homologous chromosomes, very similar but slightly different. Chromosomes again: homologous chromosomes contain the same genes but have slightly different dna sequences, after replication, each homolog has 2 chromatids. Features of meiosis: meiosis i, homologous pairs are separated reducing chromosome , reduction division, produces 2 haploid cells, meiosis ii, sister chromatids are separated, produces 4 haploid cells. Prophase i events: chromosomes condense, nuclear membrane breaks down, spindle pole begin to form, homologous chromosomes pair up and form a complex called a tetrad, homologous held together by synaptonemal complex proteins.

A. The exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes during meiosis I.

B. The pairing or tight association of homologous chromosomes in meiosis I. Results in the formation of a tetrad.

C. Non-identical copies of the same chromosome. Present in all diploid cells, even before replication. These chromosomes are the same length and contain genes for the same characteristics, but may have different alleles for each gene. D.

The period of the cell cycle that includes G1, S phase, and G2. E. A structure that develops during cytokinesis in plants.

F. Condensed chromosomes.

G. An invagination that develops during cytokinesis in animal cells.

H. When an organism has two copies of every chromosome (2n).

I. Two identical copies of a chromosome. These are only present after DNA replication.

J. The phase of the cell cycle when DNA is replicated.

1) A tissue in a mouse contains two types of cells: one that divides rapidly and one that divides more slowly. The most likely difference between these two cell types is that the slow-dividing cell type spends more time in phase

G1, G2, G3, M, or S

2) In meiosis II

a- four genetically identical cells are generated

b- sister chromatids are separated

c- DNA replication occurs

d- crossing over occurs

e- both a and b

e- crossing over during prophase I

4) Which of the following does not occur during mitotic prometaphase?
