CYTOGENETICS
Cell Division - CORRECT ANSWER-Also known as Mitosis Takes place in Regular
Body Cells Keeps Cells Living and Growing.
Mitosis - CORRECT ANSWER-Also known as binary fission
Mitosis - CORRECT ANSWER-For growth and to replace old, worn out or damaged
cells. Occurs in body cells therefore forms body cells.
G1 stage - CORRECT ANSWER-Cells mature by making more cytoplasm & organelles
Synthesis - CORRECT ANSWER-DNA is copied or replicated
G2 stage - CORRECT ANSWER-Occurs after DNA has been copied. All cell structures
needed for division are made
Mitosis - CORRECT ANSWER-Also called karyokinesis
Mitosis - CORRECT ANSWER-Only occurs in eukaryotes
Mitosis - CORRECT ANSWER-Doesn't occur in some cells such as brain cells
Interphase - CORRECT ANSWER-The Cell spends the majority of its life here, growing
and functioning.
Prophase - CORRECT ANSWER-during which the chromosomes become visible as
paired chromatids and the nuclear envelope disappears.
Metaphase - CORRECT ANSWER-During which the Chromosomes line up across
center of the cell, also called the equator, or Metaphase plate.
Anaphase - CORRECT ANSWER-during which the chromosomes move away from one
another to opposite poles of the spindle.
Telophase - CORRECT ANSWER-an envelope surrounds each set of Chromatids to
form new Nucleus and the Cytoplasm starts to divide
, Cytokinesis - CORRECT ANSWER-The cytoplasm, organelles, and nuclear material are
evenly split and two new cells are formed.
Meiosis - CORRECT ANSWER-Takes place in the Gametes of an organism
Genetic diversity - CORRECT ANSWER-is a critical for a population to adapt changing
environments
refers to the diversity within species.
Gregor Mendel (1822-1884) - CORRECT ANSWER-He is Responsible for the Laws
governing Inheritance of Traits
He is an Austrian monk
He Studied the inheritance of traits in pea plants
2oth century - CORRECT ANSWER-Mendel's work was not recognized until the turn of
the
28,000 - CORRECT ANSWER-Between 1856 and 1863, Mendel cultivated and tested
some _________________ pea plants
Pea - CORRECT ANSWER-is most commonly the small spherical seed or the seed-pod
of the pod fruit Pisum sativum.
chromosomes & DNA - CORRECT ANSWER-Mendel did not know that the "particles"
were actually
Trait - CORRECT ANSWER-any characteristic that can be passed from parent to
offspring
Heredity - CORRECT ANSWER-passing of traits from parent to offspring
Genetics - CORRECT ANSWER-study of heredity
Punnet Square - CORRECT ANSWER-is a square diagram that is used to predict the
genotypes of a particular cross or breeding experiment & Used to help solve genetics
problems
Reginald C. Punnett - CORRECT ANSWER-It is named after____________, who
devised the approach in 1905.
