The Cell Cycle
What stage does the cell stay in for most of its life?
Interphase
What does DNA stand for
Deoxyribonucleic acid
What does Ploidy mean
The number of chromosomes sets
How many chromosomes do Gamete cells have
23 chromosomes
In interphase, is the cell in chromatin or chromosome form
chromatin
What does PMAT stand for?
Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase
DNA is made of two strands of (blank) stranded together
Nucleotides
46 chromosomes
Meiosis consists of (blank) and of chromosomes followed by (blank)
One Replication, Two Divisions
how much time is spent in this phase
90% of the cell cycle
What happens in Anaphase
Sister chromatids are pulled apart and seperate chromatids are pulled to opposite sides of the cell by spindle fibers.
Name the 4 nitrogen bases
Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, Guanine
what holds a two chromatin together
What is a Gamete
Male: Sperm
Female: Eggs
Are cells in Mitosis Somatic or Gamete
Somatic
What happens in cytokinesis?
The entire cell divides in half
(blank) bonds between A and T and (blank) bonds between C and G
Double, Triple
What happens in Meta phase
The Chromosomes all migrate to the middle of the cell and become attached to spindle fibers
How many daughter cells come out of Meiosis
4 Daughter cells
is mitosis Nuclear or Reduction division
Nuclear Division
Name the order of the cell cycle
Interphase, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase, Cytokinesis
A-C-C-T-G-A-C-T-G
T-G-G-A-C-T-G-A-C
What is the 3rd phase called
Metaphase
In meiosis are daughter cells Haploid or Diploid
Haploid
In what phase of mitosis does the nuclear membrane disappear?
