What is the name for the pairing of the homologous chromosomes that occurs during meiosis?
Synapsis
Name of the phases in the correct order.....
Interphase, Prophase,,Metaphase,Anaphase, Telophase and Cytokinesis.
What is Cytokinesis?
The process in which the cell divides its cytoplasim and organelles between two daughter cells.
Cytokinesis varies depending on the type of cell... why is that the case?
It depends on the different structures of their outer membranes. Animal eukaryotic cells - cell membrane thats easier to deform. Plant- thick rigid wall.
When does cancer occur?
When some very damaging mutatation takes place in the cell. In this case, the cell doesn't die due to the extreme change but causes cancer instead.
During which phase of meiosis does crossing over occur?
Prophase I
In which phase of meiosis does the separation of sister chromatids occur?
Anaphase II
what stage does the nuclues form?
Telophase and Telophase I and II (In mitosis and meiosis cell division respectively)
The separation of pair of homlogous chromosomes takes place in the second meiotic divison?True or False.....
False........It takes places in the first meiotic division
In which cell does mitosis occur?
In somatic cells
During which phase of meiosis do homologous chromosomes pair up and form tetrads?
Prophase I
Prophase II is longer than Prophase I (True or False)
False
Which cell division makes me different from my other siblings and our parents?
Meiosis (Diploid 46.... Haploid 23)
Is this Meiosis or Mitosis Cell Divison? Which one is the Metaphase?
Mitosis
What's the difference bwetween Anaphase and Anaphase I?
The chromatids are pulled to the opposite ends/poles of the cell but in the Anaphase I the chromosomes are pulled to opposite ends of the cell.
What is the main purpose of meiosis?
Production of gametes
