Somatic (parent)
Identical
Mitosis is when a ___ cell divides into two genetically ____ daughter cells
Two Major Phases → Interphase & Mitotic Phase
Interphase → G1, S, G2
Mitotic Phase → Mitosis & Cytokinesis (PMAT + C)
Mitosis → PMAT
Phases w/in the Cell Cycle
G2
Cell continues to grow, forms microtubules in preparation for division
Metaphase
Chromosomes line up down the center

G1
Cell recovering from division, growing in size, doubling organelles
Prophase
Chromatin condenses, nucleus and nucleolus breakdown, mitotic spindle fibers form

Telophase
Chromosomes relax, nucleus and nucleolus reform, mitotic spindle fibers breakdown

S Phase
DNA is replicated
Cytokinesis
Animals – actin creates a cleavage furrow
Plants – cell plate forms
Both – cells split
Anaphase
Sister chromatids separate forming daughter chromosomes

Homologous Chromosomes
are found as a pair in a set within an organism’s genome
Diploid
If there are two of these in a set that means the organism is ____ or 2n
length/size
genes
One of these DNA molecules came from your mother and one molecule came from your father.
In a set, the molecules are the same _____ the centromere is in the same location, and ____ are in the same locus but have variation
Sister Chromatids
are duplicated chromosomes attached at the centromere
They have identical genes
S (Synthesis)
Anaphase
These molecules (Sister chromatids) are formed during ____ phase of interphase and only separate during the ____ of mitosis
These molecules are synthesized so that new cells after mitosis have a whole new, identical set of DNA
G1 (primary checkpoint)
the check point in which a cell checks if DNA was damaged during mitosis and if there is enough nutrients available to move forward with the cell cycle. The molecule p53 is used here to correct DNA damage or cause apoptosis
G2 Checkpoint
occurs to check if chromosomes lined up correctly during mitosis before being split to opposite side of the cell
M Checkpoint
occurs to check that DNA was replicated correctly in the previous phase
Somatic cell, gamete
A ___(1) is a body cell. They make up all of our cells except for ___(2)
Mitosis
The cell type above (1) (somatic) replicates through the process of ____
Diploid
The Somatic (1) cell type is ____
Haploid
The Gamete (2) cell type is _______
p53
Which molecule will repair damaged DNA but if the damage is irrepairable will cause the cell to undergo apoptosis?

What is binary fission? How is it different from mitosis? How is it similar?
Genome
A __ is the full set of DNA in an organism's body
Chromosomes
Long strands of DNA w/ 500 million base pairs are called ___
Double Helix
The Structure of DNA is a ___ ____

The 4 Nitrogenous bases in humans are Adenine, ___, Guanine, & ___. Adenine pairs w/ ___, & Guanine pairs with?
Carbon
A section of DNA that codes for a specific protein is called a ___. There are 20,000 of these in each our cells
Somatic
Gametes
Body cells are called ___ cells, & sex cells are recalled ___
46 ; 23
Humans have ___ sets of chromosomes in body cells (2n) & __ sets in gametes (n) (sperm & eggs)
zygote
When two haploid (n) cells join, they form a diploid(2n) ___
homologous
Chromosomes that are the same length & have genes at the same loci are called ___ chromosomes
genome
A ___ is the entire genetic complement of an organism
DNA
Nucleoid
Genes are long strands of ___ found in the nucleus of Eukaryotes & found in the ___ of Prokaryotes
sugar

Thymine
Cytosine
The 4 paired nitrogenous bases in DNA are Adenine & ___ & Guanine & ___
gene
A sequence of DNA that codes for the production of specific protein is called a ___
homologous
Paired chromosomes that are the same length & have genes at the same loci is called ___ chromosomes
(Sister) Chromatids
___ are duplicated chromosomes attached by a centromere
A long strand (stretch out) of DNA
What is a chromosome?
46
23
How many Chromosomes are in human somatic cells? Sex cells or gametes?
Chromatids
centrosomes
When chromosomes divide, they form sister ___ held together by ___

Prophase
Metaphase
Anaphase
Telophase
What are the Phases of Mitosis
