Kinetochores
- CORRECT ANSWERS - protein structures located on the
centromeres that serve as attachment points for specific fibers of the
spindle apparatus (kinetochore fibers)


Kinetochores - CORRECT ANSWERS - protein structures located on
the centromeres that serve as attachment points for specific fibers of the
spindle apparatus (kinetochore fibers)


metastasis - CORRECT ANSWERS - distant spread of cancerous
cells through the bloodstream or lymphatic systems


metastasis
- CORRECT ANSWERS - distant spread of cancerous cells through
the bloodstream or lymphatic systems


Mitosis
- CORRECT ANSWERS - 2 identical cells created from a single cell


Mitosis
- CORRECT ANSWERS - 2 identical cells created from a single cell

,Cytokinesis
- CORRECT ANSWERS - splitting of cytoplasm and organelles into
2 daughter cells


Cytokinesis
- CORRECT ANSWERS - splitting of cytoplasm and organelles into 2
daughter cells


Haploid (n)
- CORRECT ANSWERS - cells that contain only 1 copy of each
chromosome
example-germ cells


Haploid (n)
- CORRECT ANSWERS - cells that contain only 1 copy of each
chromosome
example-germ cells


Diploid (2n)
- CORRECT ANSWERS - contain 2 copies of each chromosome


Diploid (2n)
- CORRECT ANSWERS - contain 2 copies of each chromosome


Prophase (mitosis)
- CORRECT ANSWERS - chromatin condenses into chromosomes
centriole pairs separate, move toward opposite sides of the cell, and
form spindle fibers made of microtubules

,the fibers radiate outward from the centrioles
nuclear membrane dissolves which allows spindle fibers to contact
chromosomes


Prophase (mitosis)
- CORRECT ANSWERS - chromatin condenses into chromosomes
centriole pairs separate, move toward opposite sides of the cell, and
form spindle fibers made of microtubules
the fibers radiate outward from the centrioles
nuclear membrane dissolves which allows spindle fibers to contact
chromosomes


Metaphase
- CORRECT ANSWERS - centriole pairs at opp. ends of cell
kinetochore fibers align chromosomes at the metaphase plate
(equatorial plate) which is equidistant b/w 2 poles of the cell


Metaphase
- CORRECT ANSWERS - centriole pairs at opp. ends of cell
kinetochore fibers align chromosomes at the metaphase plate
(equatorial plate) which is equidistant b/w 2 poles of the cell


Anaphase
- CORRECT ANSWERS - centromeres split
each sister chromatic has its own distinct centromere
they are pulled toward opp. poles of cell
sister chromatids separate


Anaphase

, - CORRECT ANSWERS - centromeres split
each sister chromatic has its own distinct centromere
they are pulled toward opp. poles of cell
sister chromatids separate


Telophase and Cytokinesis
- CORRECT ANSWERS - spindle apparatus disappears
nuclear membrane reforms around each set if chromosomes
nucleoli reappears
chromosomes uncoil
cytoplasm and organelles separate so that each daughter cell has
supplies to survive on its own (cytokinesis)
results in 2 identical daughter cells


Telophase and Cytokinesis
- CORRECT ANSWERS - spindle apparatus disappears
nuclear membrane reforms around each set if chromosomes
nucleoli reappears
chromosomes uncoil
cytoplasm and organelles separate so that each daughter cell has
supplies to survive on its own (cytokinesis)
results in 2 identical daughter cells


gametes
- CORRECT ANSWERS - non-identical sex cells


gametes
- CORRECT ANSWERS - non-identical sex cells
