What are the three phases of interphase?
G1, S, and G2
What are the four stages of mitosis?
Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase
How many times does meiosis duplicate?
Once
How many times does Meiosis 2 duplicate?
Two times
What is my Favorite color?
Pink
Why is the G0 phase not mentioned as much?
because it is often considered a separate state from the main cell cycle
What happens in the prophase stage?
Prepare! Chromosomes condense and nuclear envelope break down
What stage does crossing over happen in meiosis 1?
Prophase 1
In which phase of meiosis II do sister chromatids separate and move to opposite poles of the cell?
Anaphase 2
Do i like dogs or cats better?
Dogs
What happens in the G1 phase?
Cell grows, Normal functions
What happens in the metaphase stage?
Chromosome line up in the middle of the cell
How many cells are produced at the end of meiosis?
Four haploid cells
How many cells will there be at the end of meiosis 2?
four cells
What is my dream vacation?
Bahamas
What happens in the S (synthesis) phase?
DNA is copied in the nucleus
What happens in the anaphase stage?
Chromatids are pulled to oppostie ends by spindle fibers, move AWAY
What is the difference between metaphase 1 and metaphase 2?
in Metaphase I, homologous chromosome pairs line up at the metaphase plate, while in Metaphase II, individual chromosomes line up at the plate.
How many cells are there at the start of meiosis 2?
two haploid cells
How many sibilings do i have?
6
What happens in the G2 phase?
More growth, organelles replicate
What happens in the Telophase stage?
Nuclear membranes forms around the chromosomes, start forming two cells
What event happens during Anaphase 1 that is unique to meiosis?
separation of homologous chromosomes
What is the purpose of meiosis 2?
to separate sister chromatids, producing four genetically unique haploid cells (gametes)
When is my birthday?
