G0 Phase

stable, non dividing period of variable length TERM 2

G

DEFINITION 2 growth and development of the cell G1/S checkpoint TERM 3

S phase

DEFINITION 3 synthesis of DNA TERM 4

G

DEFINITION 4 Preparation for division G2/ M checkpoint TERM 5

Prophase `

DEFINITION 5 Chromosomes condense and mitotic swindle forms

Pro metaphase

Nuclear envelope disintegrates, and spindle microtubules anchor to kinetochores TERM 7

Metaphase

DEFINITION 7 Chromosomes align on the metaphase plate spindle-assembly checkpoint TERM 8

Anaphase

DEFINITION 8 sister chromatids separate, becoming individual chromosomes that migrate toward spindle poles TERM 9

Telophase

DEFINITION 9 Chromosomes arrive at spindle poles, the nuclear envelope re-forms, and the condensed chromosomes relax TERM 10

Cytokinesis

DEFINITION 10 cytoplasm divides cell wall forms in plant cells

kinetochore

multi-protein complex at the centromere of each chromosome attachment site for spindle fibers (microtubules) TERM 17

Meiosis I

DEFINITION 17 synapsis of homologous chromosomes recombination separation of homologous chromosomes (reductional division) TERM 18

Meiosis

II

DEFINITION 18 separation of sister chromatids (equational division) TERM 19

reductional division

DEFINITION 19 separation of homologous chromosomes TERM 20

equational division

DEFINITION 20 separation of sister chromatids

Recombination takes place in prophase I

Homologs enter synapsis, recombine, and then segregate sister chromatids remain intact throughout meiosis I synaptonemal complex forms between non-sister chromatids non-sister chromatids recombine and create new combinations of alleles after recombination, maternal and paternal homologs segregate to different daughter cells TERM 22

Substages to Prophase I

DEFINITION 22 leptotene zygotene pachytene diplotene diakinesis TERM 23

Synaptonemal complex

DEFINITION 23 consists of multiple proteins that bind together non sister chromatids tetrads (bivalents) are the four synapsed chromatids for each homologous pair of chromosomes Align homologous chromosomes facilitate homologous recombination TERM 24

recombination nodules

DEFINITION 24 aggregates of proteins that form in the SC and mediate crossing over TERM 25

nondisjunction

DEFINITION 25 abnormal chromosome segregation that results in abnormal chromosomes numbers after cell division
