Chapter 13 Meiosis One of the characteristics of life is that organisms reproduce their own kind Exceptions to this rule only show up as tabloid rumors Offspring generally resemble their parents in some form Heredity-transfer of traits from parent to offspring But there is variation We will look at how chromosomes pass from parent to offspring Parents give offspring coded information in units called genes It is our link to our parents The genetic program is written in the language of DNA-4 bases It is symbolic DNA programs the cell to translate the information Ex: when we read the word apple, we see the fruit Cells do the same thing except in the form of a code that might mean freckles, blue eyes, brown hair

Chapter 12 The Cell Cycle: Practice Quiz Multiple Choice Identify the letter of the choice that best completes the statement or answers the question. Self-Quiz Questions ____ 1. Increases in the enzymatic activity of some protein kinases important for the regulation of the cell cycle are due to a. kinase synthesis by ribosomes. b. activation of inactive kinases by binding to cyclins. c. conversion of inactive cyclins to active kinases by means of phosphorylation. d. cleavage of the inactive kinase molecules by cytoplasmic proteases. e. a decline in external growth factors to a concentration below the inhibitory threshold.

Campbell's Biology, 9e (Reece et al.) Chapter 13 Meiosis and Sexual Life Cycles New questions are mostly at higher skill levels in this chapter. The new questions represent newer material both in the chapter and in the area of biological research. All questions with accompanying art work or questions grouped together as sets have been organized at the end of the chapter. Multiple-Choice Questions 1) If a horticulturist breeding gardenias succeeds in having a single plant with a particularly desirable set of traits, which of the following would be her most probable and efficient route to establishing a line of such plants? A) Backtrack through her previous experiments to obtain another plant with the same traits.

Campbell's Biology, 9e (Reece et al.) Chapter 12 The Cell Cycle In this chapter, 24 questions are new, and 12 have been altered to incorporate new material from the textbook. As in the other chapters, any questions that depend on figures or introductory scenarios have been placed at the end of the chapter rather than in concept sequence. Multiple-Choice Questions 1) The centromere is a region in which A) chromatids remain attached to one another until anaphase. B) metaphase chromosomes become aligned at the metaphase plate. C) chromosomes are grouped during telophase. D) the nucleus is located prior to mitosis. E) new spindle microtubules form at either end. Answer: A Topic: Concept 12.1 Skill: Knowledge/Comprehension

Lecture Outline for Campbell/Reece Biology, 7th Edition, ? Pearson Education, Inc. 12-1 Chapter 12 The Cell Cycle Lecture Outline Overview: The Key Roles of Cell Division ? The ability of organisms to reproduce their kind is the one characteristic that best distinguishes living things from nonliving matter. ? The continuity of life is based on the reproduction of cells, or cell division. Cell division functions in reproduction, growth, and repair. ? The division of a unicellular organism reproduces an entire organism, increasing the population. ? Cell division on a larger scale can produce progeny for some multicellular organisms. ? This includes organisms that can grow by cuttings.
