Tick (v) if it is a true statement. Chapter 2 Cell Structure and Cell Organisation 1. The cell is the basic unit of life for all organisms. 2. All cells have the same shape and size. 3. All cells have a plasma membrane‚ nucleus and cytoplasm. 4. Protoplasm consists of a plasma membrane and nucleus. 5. The nucleus consists of chromosomes and a nucleolus. 6. Organelles that are found in the cytoplasm of a cell include the nucleus‚ vacuole‚ endoplasmic reticulum‚ mitochondria and Golgi apparatus.

Mitosis and Meiosis I. These two processes function to pass chromosomes from one cellular generation to the next in a very carefully controlled manner. II. Mitosis and Meiosis are both correctly described as nuclear division; they are never correctly called cell division‚ or any kind of reproduction. It is possible (and often quite normal) for nuclei to divide when cells don’t. And organisms reproduce; nuclei and cells divide. III. Mitosis A. Mitosis is the division of a nucleus

point where a crossover occurs http://cyberbridge.mcb.harvard.edu/mitosis_6.html Metaphase 1 of meiosis During metaphase 1 every pair of bivalents (two chromosomes‚ four chromatids total) are put in line on the metaphase plate. This is a different mitosis metaphase‚ which is where all the chromosome are in a single file on the metaphase plate. The position are random. So basically the parental homolog appears on every side. Which means there is a possibility of a 50-50 chance for the daughter cells

CHAPTER 2: CELLS Learning about disease is often simplified by growing it in a dish – some cells like heart and nerve cells however do not grow easily outside the body. Cellular reprogramming takes cell back to a state similar to stem cells and then coaxes them to specialize in a different way. Example – LEOPARD syndrome MIM 151100. Acronym for symptoms: enlarged heart w/blocked valves to the lungs‚ freckles‚ abnormal genitals‚ deafness. Skin cells taken from patients were reprogrammed to give
Premium Stem cell Meiosis Cell cycle
There is two stages in M-phase; the first stage is called mitosis. Mitosis is the nuclear division of the cell‚ separating the two copies of the genome and forming daughter nuclei. There are four stages in mitosis: prophase‚ metaphase‚ anaphase and telophase. Multiple changes occur in prophase including the coiling of the chromatin into chromosomes‚ the disappearance of the nuclear envelope

Cell division consists of two processes: mitosis and cytokinesis. Mitosis— division of the nucleus and its chromosomes— is divided into five phases:prophase‚ prometaphase‚ metaphase‚ anaphase‚ and telophase. Mitosis is followed by cytokinesis‚ when the cytoplasm splits to form two separate daughter cells. The cytoplasm of a cell in late interphase contains two centrosomes‚ each of which may contain a pair of centrioles. In the nucleus‚ the chromosomeshave been replicated during S phase‚ but are
