UNCW Biology 201 Exam 3 Questions
& Answers With Complete Solutions
Graded A+
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
Cyclin. ANSWER -Cellular protein that play an important role in regulating the cell
cycle.
Genome. ANSWER -Consists of the complete genetic sequence of a cell.
Somatic Cells. ANSWER -Non-reproductive cells.
Have two sets up chromosomes making it a 'diploid' cell.
Gametes. ANSWER -Reproducing cells (egg and sperm)
Have only a single set of chromosomes making it a 'haploid' cell.
What are the two main phases of the cell cycle?. ANSWER -1. Interphase
2. Mitotic Phase (Mitosis & cytokinesis)
Mitosis. ANSWER -A process of nuclear division in eukaryotic cells that conserves
the number of chromosomes.
-produces two daughter cells identical to parent cells. (n=46)
, What are the five stages of Mitosis?. ANSWER -1. Prophase
2. Prometaphase
3. Metaphase
4. Anaphase
5. Telophase
Prophase. ANSWER -1st stage of mitosis
Chromosomes begin to condense and form a mitotic spindle.
Prometaphase and metaphase. ANSWER -2nd and 3rd stage of mitosis
-Microtubules (spindle fibers) attach to the kinetochore (form at centromeres of
chromatids) of chromosomes
-Chromosoms align on the metaphase plate
Anaphase. ANSWER -4th stage of mitosis
Chromatids split of each chromosome and heads towards opposite poles of the cell
Telophase. ANSWER -5th stage of mitosis
-nucleus divides into two daughter nuclei
-cytokinesis has begun
