Chromosome Mutations
100

A cell will spend most of its time in this part of the cell cycle

What is Interphase?

100

When Crossing Over occurs

What is Prophase I?

100

The end result of Meiosis

What is four genetically different haploid daughter cells?

100

A diploid cell of a panda bear has 42 chromosomes, how many would the haploid cell have?

What is 21?
100
A type of mutation where one portion of a chromosome is removed

What is deletion?

200

The phase of mitosis that involves chromosomes lining up in the middle of the cell

What is Metaphase?

200

When Independent Assortment occurs in Meiosis

What is Metaphase I?

200

A 2n parent cell has 20 chromosomes, how many would the daughter cell have after going through Meiosis?

What is 10?

200

The end result of Mitosis

What is two identical diploid daughter cells?

200

In this mutation a section of a chromosome is replicated

What is duplication?

300

Mitosis occurs after this phase of the cell cycle

What is G2 (or what is interphase)

300

  1. Why is crossing over important to genetic variation in organisms?

    1. To make body cells

    2. To help with meiosis and the process of cell division

    3. So that genetic information from each parent is shared with the offspring

    4. To regulate cell division 

What is #3- 

  • So that genetic information from each parent is shared with the offspring

300

The type of cell that goes through Meiosis

What is Gametes/Reprodutive Cells/Body Cells

300

The type of cell that goes through Mitosis

What is Somatic Cells/Body Cells?

300

This is a mutation where a section is removed, reversed, and put back in the chromosome

What is Inversion?

400

  1. Mitosis is

    1. The formation of gametes

    2. Division of nuclei

    3. The formation of haploid cells

    4. Responsible for synthesizing RNA 

What is Division of nuclei

400

  1. The independent assortment of homologous chromosomes during meiosis helps genetic variation. Which of the following best explains how this occurs?

    1. Increases the likelihood of crossing over between non-sister chromatids. 

    2. Increases the likelihood of possible chromosome combinations in the gametes.

    3. Results in the formation of some diploid and some haploid gametes.

    4. Results in the formation of gametes that contain different numbers of chromosomes.

What is #2- increases  the likelihood of possible chromosome combinations in the gametes.

400

The purpose of Meiosis

What is Reproduction?
400

The purpose of Mitosis

What is Growth and Repair?

400
A mutation that occurs when a section of a chromosome moves to a totally unrelated chromosome

What is Translocation?

500

The phase of mitosis where the chromosomes are separated into chromatids

What is Anaphase?

500

The three causes of genetic variation in Meiosis

What is Crossing Over, Independent Assortment, and Radom Fertilization?

500

Two reasons Meiosis is important

  1. Its allows organisms to reproduce sexually by reducing the number of chromosomes in gametes

  2. Provides genetic variation among offspring so not two individuals are genetically the same

  3. Allows body cells to divide and create new cells

  4. Creates genetically identical diploid daughter cells.

What is #1- Its allows organisms to reproduce sexually by reducing the number of chromosomes in gametes

and #2- Provides genetic variation among offspring so not two individuals are genetically the same

500

Which is more important- Mitosis or Meiosis?

What is neither one- they are equally important?

500

This mutation is visible when looking at a Karyotype and finding a homologous pair that has too many or not enough chromosomes

What is Non Disjunction?
