564901822tetradA paired set of homologous chromosomes, each composed of two sister chromatids
564901823Prophase IStage when tetrads form
564901824Prophase IStage when crossing-over occurs
564901825Interphase IStage when chromosomes are duplicated in Meiosis
564901826Telophase IIStage when the sex cells are produced
564901827MeiosisThe type of cell division in where chromosomes line up in pairs
564901828FT/F: Some of the sex cells are genetically alike after Meiosis
564901829FT/F: If a cell with a diploid # of 2 chromosomes goes through Meiosis, after the end of Telophase I there would be 2 chromosomes visible.
564901830FT/F: Each chromatid in a chromosome is from either the father or mother
5649018310At the end of anaphase, how many chromatids would still be visible?
5649018322If a cell with 2 visible chromosomes is about to enter Metaphase II, what is its haploid #?
564901833half, chromosomesMeiosis creates gametes with ___________ the # of ______________ that body cells have
564901834FT/F: Meiosis is mitosis, but it happens twice
564901835Somatic cellsAnother name for body cells
564901836Sperm, eggWhat are examples of gametes?
564901837ovaries, testesGametes are made in the ______________ for females, and _____________ for males

564901839femaleXX determines what gender?
564901840TT/F: Body cells are diploid, gametes are haploid
56490184122How many autosomes do humans have?
5649018421How many sex chromosomes do humans have?
564901843Genetic diversityCrossing over helps create what? (2 words)
564901844FT/F: DNA replication occurs while chromosomes are visible
56490184523How many chromosomes would be expected in each daughter cell of a human during late Anaphase II?
564901846FT/F: Chromosomes are pulled apart in Anaphase
564901847FT/F: In Interphase II, chromosomes are duplicated again.
564901848Determine genderWhat do sex chromosomes do?
564901849Crossing-over creates genetically different sex cellsWhy is meiosis important for diversity?
564901850Crossing-overprocess in which homologous chromosomes exchange portions of their chromatids during meiosis
564901851homologous pairsa pair of chromosomes, one from each parent
564901852diploidan organism or cell having two sets of chromosomes
564901853sister chromatidsTwo identical copies of a single chromosome that are connected by a centromere are called this
564901854polar fibersSpindle microtubules that extend from the two poles of a dividing cell are called this
564901855metaphaseWhat stage of mitosis is this?
564901856anaphaseWhat stage of mitosis is this?
564901857telophaseWhat stage of mitosis is this?
564901858Cell plateIf the picture above was a plant cell in mitosis, what would the middle line be called?
564901859prophaseWhat stage of mitosis is this?
564901860Metaphase plateIn the stage where chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell, what is the line called?
564901861FT/F: The chromosomes in metaphase always line up straight.
564901862mitosiscell division (phase of cell cycle)
564901863G1cell grows in size, proteins and organelles made (phase of cell cycle)
564901864G2cell grows in size, proteins and organelles made phase (phase of cell cycle)
564901865SDNA synthesis phase (phase of cell cycle)
564901866FT/F: The stages of Mitosis are G1, S, G2
564901867G1, S, G2, MitosisWhat are the stages of the cell cycle? In order
564901868FT/F: The largest stage of the cell cycle is mitosis.
