Interphase
What is G1?
These are the type of cells that undergo mitosis
What are somatic (body) cells
This is the number of chromosomes a human gamete has
What is 23?
Father of modern-day genetics
Who is Gregor Mendel?
Stage of interphase where DNA is replicated
What is S phase?
These are the four phases of mitosis
What are prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase
These are separated in Meiosis I
What are homologous chromosomes?
The physical appearance of an individual
What is phenotype?
This is the stage the cell is in if it is not preparing for replication
What is G0?
This is what we call the duplicated chromosomes that separate in anaphase
What are sister chromatids?
Two types of gametes
What are ovum and sperm?
Ultimate source of genetic variation
What are mutations?
These ensure that the cell cycle does not progress if conditions are not suitable for cell division
What are cell cycle checkpoints?
What are growth and development?
This is the end result of meiosis
What is four genetically different, haploid cells?
This is the term used for the parental generation
What is P-generation?
These are the stages cell cycle checkpoints are located after in interphase
What are G1 and G2?
This is the end result of mitosis after cytokinesis
What is two genetically identical cells?
Swapping of genetic information between nonsister chromatids
What is crossing over?
Allele that exerts controlling influence if an individual is heterozygous
What is dominant allele?
