UCONN MCB 2410 Genetics Exam 1
Life cycle of a cell - ANS-
Chromosome structure - ANS-
Metacentric chromosome - ANS-centromere is in the middle
Submetacentric chromosome - ANS-Chromosome in which the centromere is displaced
toward one end, producing a short arm and a long arm
Acrocentric chromosome - ANS-Chromosome in which the centromere is near one end,
producing a long arm at one end and a knob, or satellite, at the other end.
Telocentric chromosome - ANS-a chromosome in which the centromere is located at its
very end
Kinetochore - ANS-
Telomere - ANS-
Sister Chromatids - ANS-
Mitiosis - ANS-to make an exact copy of a cell by asexual reproduction
Meiosis - ANS-Cell division that produces reproductive cells in sexually reproducing
organisms
Meiosis I - ANS-The first division of a two-stage process of cell division in sexually
reproducing organisms that results in cells with half the number of chromosome sets as
the original cell.
Meiosis II - ANS-the second phase of meiosis consisting of chromatids separating,
along with the two diploid cells splitting in two
types of cell division - ANS-mitosis and meiosis
human genome - ANS-all of the DNA of the human species
23 chromosome pairs
, - 22 pairs of autosomes (Homologous pairs)
- 1 pair of sex chromosomes
Haploid - ANS-Germ cell (N)
Diploid - ANS-Somatic cells (2N)
Homologous pair - ANS-Maternal + Paternal
Mitosis prophase - ANS-
Mitosis metaphase - ANS-
Mitosis Anaphase - ANS-
Mitosis: Telophase and Cytokinesis - ANS-
Meiosis I prophase - ANS-
Meiosis I Metaphase - ANS-
Meiosis I anaphase - ANS-
Interkinesis (Meiosis) - ANS-
Meiosis II Metaphase - ANS-
Meiosis II Anaphase - ANS-
Telophase Meiosis - ANS-
psudoautosomal region - ANS-
tetrad - ANS-
random assortment - ANS-The chance distribution of chromosomes to daughter cells
