Which stage of meiosis is described as...
* The nuclear envelope breaks down
*Spindles form
Prophase 1
Which organelle is described as a system of folded sacs and interconnected channels, and serves as the site of protein synthesis ?
Endoplasmic Reticulum or ER
Most enzymes end in what?
-ASE
What amino acid is produced from the codon GAC
Aspartic acid
Which stage of meiosis is described as...
*Centromeres line up randomly at the equator of the cell.
Metaphase 2
What stage of meiosis is this?
Metaphase 1
Sugar deoxyribose
Phosphate
These are the main components of what structure?
DNA structure
What is the purpose of mitosis in animals?
A. to create cells with genetic variation
B. to create cells that are genetically identical
C. to check and correct any errors in the new daughter cells
D. to produce four haploid cells that are all genetically unique
B
Cellular respiration occurs in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. Because prokaryotes do not have mitochondria the Krebs cycle occurs in the cytoplasm. Where does the electron transport chain occur?
Cell membrane or plasma membrane
Which stage of meiosis is described as...
*Spindles break down
*Chromosomes condense and two nuclei form around them
Telophase 1
What stage of meiosis is this
Anaphase 1
What is the formula for cellular respiration
C6H12O6 + 6O2 ---> 6CO2 + 6H2O + 36 ATP
Mitosis is the final stage of cellular division where the nucleus divides. In order to ensure that the correct number of chromosomes end up in each new nucleus, spindle fibers that are connected at the kinetochore of the chromosomes shorten and pull the chromatids to the sides of the cell. Which stage of mitosis does this occur in?
A. prophase
B. anaphase
C. telophase
D. metaphase
B
Which enzyme links two Okazaki fragments together?
DNA Ligase
How many times does DNA replicate in Meiosis and when does the DNA replicate?
DNA replicates one time before Meiosis 1.
What phase of meiosis is this?
Prophase 1
Which organelle is a membrane bound sac that breaks down excess, worn out or dangerous substances.
Lysosomes
The disorder that may occur when the cell cycle is disrupted and can result in the uncontrollable division of cells within the body is called –
A. AIDS
B. multiple sclerosis
C. cystic fibrosis
D. cancer
D
Which organelle is descried as long, whiplike projections that aid in locomotion and feeding? What type of cells is this organelle found in?
Flagella. Both, prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.
What phase of meiosis is this?
Interphase
