#1
Front (Question)

Chromosones

Back (Answer)

tightly compacted structures of DNA

#2
Front (Question)

Chromosome structure

Back (Answer)

rod shaped structures of DNA and histones (proteins) found in a cells nucleus

#3
Front (Question)

Each half a a chromosone is called a

Back (Answer)

Chromotid

#4
Front (Question)

Autosomes have _____ chromosomes

Back (Answer)

44 (22 pairs) + 1 pair of sex chromosomes 46 chromsomes

#5
Front (Question)

Autosomes determine

Back (Answer)

Personality and physical traits

#6
Front (Question)

Homologous Chromosomes

Back (Answer)

same size, shape, and carry genes for the same traits

#7
Front (Question)

Karyotype

Back (Answer)

a display of our 22 pairs of homologous autosomes + 1 pair os sex chromosones

#8
Front (Question)

Diploid

Back (Answer)

= double cells havng 2 sets of chromosomes (2n)

#9
Front (Question)

All cells in your body are diploid except your

Back (Answer)

sex chromosones

#10
Front (Question)

Haploid

Back (Answer)

cells having only 1 set or 1/2 of the chromosomes. this = sperm and egg cells

#11
Front (Question)

binary fission

Back (Answer)

the division of one cell into 2 new offspring cells. no chromosomal variation

#12
Front (Question)

Asexual reproduction

Back (Answer)

one parent is involved (prokaryotes) less genetic variation

#13
Front (Question)

Sexual reproduction

Back (Answer)

2 parents involved (eukaryotes) more genetic variation 99.9% idntical

#14
Front (Question)

Mitosis

Back (Answer)

process of cell division resulting in 2 new cells with the identical # of chromosomes s the original cell (bodycells/2n)

#15
Front (Question)

+____+

Back (Answer)

Interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telaphase, and cytokenesis

#16
Front (Question)

Interphase

Back (Answer)

the time between new cell divisions 90% carries out specific function prepares for new cell division

#17
Front (Question)

Prophase

Back (Answer)

DNA shortens and coils into chromosomes nucleolus and nuclear membrane disapear centrsomes appear and move to opposite poles of the cell 92 chromosomes

#18
Front (Question)

As the centrosomes move apart in prophase

Back (Answer)

spindel fibers (microtubles) radiate out from each centrosome

#19
Front (Question)

metaphase

Back (Answer)

Spindle fibers move the chromosomes, all 92, to the center of the cell and hold them in place

#20
Front (Question)

Anaphase

Back (Answer)

Chromatids of each chromosome separate at the centromere and slowly move to opposite poles of the dividing cell

#21
Front (Question)

Telephase

Back (Answer)

spindle fibers disassemble, the nucleolus and the nuclear membrane reapear and the chromosomes return to a less coiled state

#22
Front (Question)

cytokenesis

Back (Answer)

splitting of the cytoplasm 2 new cells

#23
Front (Question)

proteins

Back (Answer)

regulate the process of cell division at interphase

#24
Front (Question)

Meiosis

Back (Answer)

the process o cell division that reduces the # of chromosomes to 1/2 the orignal amount and creates sex cells (gametes
