BIO 340 Exam 1 Questions And 100%
Correct Answers Latest Update

Mitosis - ANSWER -Creates two daughter cells IDENTICAL to parent.



-Happens in Somatic cells



-Parent cells is diploid (2n). So if there are 3 pairs of chromosomes 2n=6.

Human karyotpye is 2n=46



What is function of mitosis and meiosis? - ANSWER They ensure the genetic continuity
of nucleated cells



What are the phases of the cell cycle? - ANSWER G1: growth and metabolism



S: DNA synthesis and chromosome duplication



G2: preparation for mitosis



M: Divison



Steps of Mitosis - ANSWER IPMAT

1. Interphase

2. Prophase

3. Metaphase

,4. Anaphase

5. Telophase

6. Cytokinesis



Interphase (Mitosis) - ANSWER Chromosomes duplicate to produce sister

chromatids.



Prophase (Mitosis) - ANSWER -Chromosomes become paired chromatids and are

visible.

-The nuclear envelope also disappears.

-Duplicated chromosomes condense



Metaphase (Mitosis) - ANSWER Chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell

and attach to spindle fibers.



Anaphase (Mitosis) - ANSWER Chromosomes are pulled apart from each other

and towards the poles of the spindle



Telophase (Mitosis) - ANSWER -chromosomes are at opposite

ends of cell and nuclear envelope begins to form and separates

chromosomes into two new cells

-Chromosomes de-condense



Cytokinesis (Mitosis) - ANSWER final stage in which the two cells

actually divide.



What is present before replication (Mitosis)? - ANSWER -1 chromosome

,-1 chromatid

-1 piece of DNA



What is present after replication (Mitosis)? - ANSWER -1 chromosome

-2 chromatids

-2 pieces of DNA



Sister chromatids are what? -ANSWER Identical copies



During which stages of the cell cycle will you probably not view chromosomes but

uncondensed DNA?

i. During Gap 1

ii. During Synthesis

iii. During gap 2

iv. All of the above -ANSWER iv. All of the above



Where are genes found? -ANSWER -On chromosomes

-Each chromosome has a unique collection of genes in specific positions



How many chromatids are in a cell of an organism that has 4 chromosomes in G1 and
G2? -ANWER- G1: 4 chromatids

-G2: 8 chromatids



What properties do you associate with eukaryotic chromosomes? -ANWER- DNA carries
the genes

-The molecule is linear

-Most of the time it is present in the cell in its uncoiled form associated with

proteins and RNA (chromatin)

, -Its fragile and diffuse, which is a problem for cell division

--The solution for this is to package by multiple condensation



How many centrioles do centrosomes in animal cells have? - ANSWER 2



Microtubules - ANSWER -form around the centrosomes

-build the spindle

apparatus

-some attach to the kinetochores which are on the

centromeres of chromosomes during cell division.

-They help pull

the chromosomes apart during anaphase



Chromatin - ANSWER -the DNA that makes up a chromosome

-Chromosomes are the pieces of DNA made up of chromatin



Chromatids ANSWER the identical pieces of DNA held together by

centromeres



Meiosis ANSWER - has two parts! At the end you get four haploid cells that are unique

- Required for the process of each parent contributing one set of homologs to offspring



What are most animals and plants (Haploid, Diploid, etc)? ANSWER -Diploid, they have 2
homologous copies of each chromosome



-One copy is inherited from the mother, the other from the father
