Q

Go phase

A

cells stop dividing and are at rest

17
Q

S Phase

A

duplication of chromosomes into sister chromosomes

18
Q

G2 phase

A

synthesis of proteins required for mitosis

19
Q

centrosome

A

microtubule organizing center near the nuclear envelope

20
Q

centrioles

A

core of centrosome, not found in plant cells

21
Q

5 stages of mitosis

A

Prophase, Prometaphase, metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase .

22
Q

Prophase

A

chromosomes condense, centrosomes move apart, nucleoli disappear

23
Q

Prometaphase

A

Spindle forms, micro tubules connect to kinetochores. Sister chromatids attach from opposite poles.

24
Q

Metaphase

A

Chromosomes align on the metaphase plate (middle)

25
Anaphase
Chromosomes divide
26
Telophase
Nuclear envelope forms around each group of chromatids
27
Cytokinesis
final stage of cell division.
28
Contractile
Animals have it.
29
Cell Plate
Plants
30
Somatic cells
most cells in the organism
31
Germ Cells
Sex cells. Haploids
32
Meiosis
Two rounds o meiosis, Chromosomes duplicate once, Nuclei divide twice
33
Meiosis 1
reductional division
34
Meiosis II
equational division
35
Nondisjunction
mistakes in chromosome segregation during meiosis. Can make mutations like retardation.
36
Germ line
specialized diploid cells set aside during embryogenesis
37
gametogenesis
the formation of gametes
38
Oogonia
Diploid germ cells in ovaries of female embryos
