When a cell reproduces‚ it must replicate all its chromosomes to pass its genes to the next generation of cells. The cell cycle consists of two major periods: interphase‚ when a cell is not dividing‚ and the mitotic phase‚ when a cell is dividing. During interphase the cell replicates its DNA. Interphase is

Defects in cell cycle control may lead to the type of chromosome alterations seen in cancer cells. This may in the long-term open new possibilities for cancer treatment. 2.

simulate the stages of mitosis by using chromosome models.You will use prepared slides of onion root tips to study plant mitosis and to calculate the relative duration of the phases of mitosis in the meristem of root tissue. Prepared slides of the whitefish blastula will be used to study mitosis in animal cells and to compare animal mitosis and plant mitosis. Exercise 3B is a study of meiosis. You will simulate the stages of meiosis by using chromosome models. You will study the crossing over

The DNA structure – prokaryotic cells are a single circular chromosome attached to the cell wall while eukaryotic cells are linear chromosomes in a nucleus floating in the center of the cell. Choose two internal structures of prokaryotic cells and three from eukaryotic cells and describe their function in your own words. |Cell Structures

genetic material. Inside of the mitosis stage there is four phases Prophase‚ Metaphase‚ anaphase‚ and telophase. In the Prophase phase each duplicated chromosome is seen as a pair of sister chromatids joined by the duplicated but unseparated centromere. The next phase is Metaphase occurs as spindle fibers attach to centromeres on the chromosomes and they align midway between centrioles.

(Autosomal recessive trait: means two copies of an abnormal gene must be present in order for the disease or trait to develop) Wilson disease is located on chromosome 13. The gene is called ATP7B and it contains the genetic information necessary to make a copper transport copper out of the liver. Mutations in the gene lead to an abnormal copper transport

At which stage of meiosis do they occur? A: When two homologous chromosomes come together before division‚ it’s homologue pairing. This is so that they can separate properly‚ and the cell makes sure that each daughter gets one copy. Cossing over is when two homologous pairs trade their DNA. A piece of dna from one will
