Document Summary

Chromosomes: dna molecules are packaged into these structures. Chromatin: entire complex of dna and proteins that is the building material of chromosomes. Somatic cells: all cells beside sperm and egg. Sister chromatids: joined copies of the original chromosome. Initially attached along lengths by cohesins: protein complexes; sister chromatid cohesion: attachment of cohesins. Centromere: region of the chromosomal dna where the chromatid is attached most closely to its sister chromatid, gives chromosomes a narrow waist . Once sister chromatids separate, considered as individual chromosomes. Mitosis: division of genetic material in the nucleus. Cytokinesis: division of cytoplasm, formation of cleavage furrow pinches the cell in 2. Cleavage furrow: a shallow groove in the cell surface near the old metaphase plate, not present in plant cells. Prophase: chromatin fibers become more tightly coiled, nucleoli disappears, each duplicated chromosome appears as 2 identical sister chromatids joined at centromeres, mitotic spindle forms, centrosomes move away from each other.

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.
