Definitions
The time interval when DNA is uncoiled in which normal cellular activity & cell growth takes place.
What is interphase?
A three nucleotide base sequence on tRNA
What is an anticodon?
The process by which a diploid cell with duplicated chromosomes turns into two diploid cells with NO duplicated chromosomes.
What is mitosis?
The process by which a diploid cell forms gametes
What is meiosis?
A cell with two sets of chromosomes (2n)
What is a diploid cell?
A sequence of three nucleotide bases on mRNA that refers to a specific amino acid
What is a codon?
One cell go through mitosis. Each cell has a diploid number of 16. The total resulting number of cells and total chromosomes in each cell.
What are 2 cells with a total of 16 total chromosomes in each cell.
The second division of Meiosis.
What is Meiosis II?
What is about 24 hours?
The figure produced when the chromosomes of a species during metaphase are arranged according to their homologous pairs
What is a karyotype?
For how many amino acids would this strand code?uracil, guanine, cytosine, cytosine, guanine, adenine, uracil, adenine, adenine
What is three?
The Diploid and Haploid number of a cell's DNA with 16 pairs of homologous chromosomes.
What are 32 diploid number and 16 haploid number?
In the cell cycle, the phase in which DNA replication occurs.
What is the S phase?
Haploid cells produced by diploid cells at the end of Meiosis
What are gametes?
A strand of mRNA has the following sequence guanine, adenine, uracil. Write the corresponding tRNA sequence.
What is cytosine, uracil, adenine?
One cell with a diploid number of 12 go through meiosis. The resulting number of cells and total chromosomes in each.
What are 4 cells with 6 chromosomes?
To introduce genetic variability during meiosis I, what function occurs during prophase I?
What is crossing over (genetic recombination)?
The phase when the cytoplasm splits in two completing the division of the cell.
What is cytokinesis?
A fertilized egg that divides by mitosis to form an adult.
Zygote
Given the DNA sequence CAGCTA, write the corresponding RNA sequence.
What is GUCGAU?
Resembles mitosis most
What is meiosis II?
The process by which one diploid cell turns into two haploid cells WITH duplicated chromosomes.
What is meiosis I?
The phase when the duplicate chromosomes and their originals are split, each going toward the centrioles
What is anaphase?
The phase when chromosomes condense, and duplicate. Centrioles duplicate. Microtubles from spindle attach to chromosomes and start moving toward the equatorial plane.
What is prophase?
The four stages of mitosis in order
What are prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase?
