Does it really phase you?
Where in the world are the chromosomes?
all about chromo...
plants:) vs animals:(
Anything Goes
100
Cell doubles in size.
What is Interphase?
100
location in cell where genetic material is contained
What is nucleus?
100
This is composed of thin, uncoiled, strands of DNA.
What is chromatin?
100
This is the phase where the two daughter cells have split apart.
What is cytokinesis?
100
this is the order of the process known as mitosis.
What is Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase?
200
Spindle fibers develop here.
What is Prophase?
200
If a cell has 8 chromosomes in prophase, how many chromatids does the cell have at this point?
What is 16?
200
When the DNA coils into an X-shaped structure.
What is a chromosome?
200
This type of cell has a cell wall.
What is a plant cell?
200
Defects in the genes that regulate mitosis are known as
what are mutations?
300
The DNA replicates at this phase.
What is Interphase?
300
The sugar in DNA is called
What is Deoxyribose?
300
Each of these X-shaped structures consists of two identical parts.
What are chromatids?
300
In this type of cell, a pinching off of the cytoplasm occurs.
What is an animal cell?
300
Describe how DNA replicates...
1. DNA unwinds 2. Nitrogenous bases floating around (T, A, G, C) pair up with the proper exposed base pair
400
The chromatids unwind into long DNA strands.
What is Telophase?
400
Centrioles and spindle fibers disappear at this stage.
What is Telophase?
400
Chromatids are held together by this.
What is a centromere?
400
In a plant cell, this forms all the way across the cell after division.
What is a cell plate?
400
What always pairs up with adenine?
What is thymine?
500
Centromere of each chromosome pair divides and heads to opposite ends of the cell.
What is Anaphase?
500
Individual genetic "recipes" for specific characteristics are called ________
What are genes?
500
Double helix of DNA is made of ___________ and ________
sugar (deoxyribose) and phospate.
500
Two part question: 1. What is the name for the cell division process? 2. Is it the same name for plant and animal cells?
1. What is the cell cycle? 2. YES?
500
If the DNA helix side has the base pairs T-C-C, then what are the nitrogenous bases that would pair up with this combination?
