BIO 161 Exam 4 Ch. 9, 10, 12 Questions and Correct Answers Meiosis ✅Type of cell division that reduces the chromosome number from 2n to n. Daughter cells receive the haploid number Diploid (2n) ✅containing two complete sets of chromosomes, one from each parent. the total number of chromosomes. Haploid (n) ✅cell condition where only one type of chromosome is present Gametes ✅reproductive cells (sperm and egg in animals). usually have the haploid number of chromosomes Zygote ✅diploid cell formed by the production of two gametes; the product of fertilization Mitosis ✅cell division in which the nucleus divides into nuclei containing the same number of chromosomes Cytokinesis ✅division of the cytoplasm to form two separate daughter cells What are the three stages of interphase? ✅G1, S, G2 What happens in the G1 phase of interphase? ✅cell grows and certain organelles double. What happens in the S phase of interphase? ✅DNA replicates. Chromatids are duplicated forming sister chromatids What happens in the G2 phase of interphase? ✅Organelles (centrioles & mictotubules) and molecules for cell division are synthesized what happens in the M (mitotic) stage of mitosis? ✅mitosis (nuclear division) and cytokinesis (division of the cytoplasm) What is the mitotic spindle? ✅a structure made of microtubules that distributes the daughter chromosomes to two daughter nuclei. what is a cell signal? ✅a molecule that stimulates or inhibits activity in a cell What is a growth factor? ✅A protein made by certain body cells that stimulates or inhibits other cells What is cyclin? ✅a protein that activates kinases and a protein whose levels change with the cell cycle the signaling of what protein stops the cell cycle at the G1 checkpoint if DNA is damaged? ✅p53 (protein 53) When p53 tries to repair DNA, p53 levels rise. If the level becomes to high in the cell, it can cause... ✅apoptosis (programmed cell death) what is the protein RB (retinoblastoma) responsible for? ✅interpreting growth and nutrient availability signals What happens at the G1 checkpoint? ✅The cell checks that the chemicals needed for replication are present and for any damage to the DNA before entering S -phase If the cell cycle has halted, what is the cause and 2 solutions? ✅Failure to pass the G1 checkpoint. Cell will enter G0 or go through apoptosis if severe enough. when growth signals promote cell division, what substance causes a phosphate to be added to the RB protein? ✅CDK (cyclin -dependent -kinase) What protein is released after the phosphorylation of RB? ✅E2F What does E2F do after released from phosphorylated RB? ✅binds to DNA, which activates certain proteins needed to complete the cell cycle G0 cells can enter the G1 phase and divide if... ✅growth signals prompt the cells cells do not commit to dividing until... ✅the conditions, including plenty of nutrients, are right the cell cycle may halt at the G2 checkpoint if... ✅DNA has not finished replicating or is physically damaged The cell cycle checkpoint in the mitotic stage halts cell division if... ✅the chromosomes on the mitotic spindle are not properly attached How many checkpoints are there in the cell cycle? Where do they occur? ✅3. G1, G2, M stage What are somatic cells? ✅non-sex cells
