Document Summary

Cytokinesis: division of the cytoplasm, toughly equal parts (generally, cleavage animal cells, cell plate plant, mitosis is the same in eukaryotes. How do the chromosomes move in the spindle: kinetochore is walking to the spindle on the microtubule. What determines when a cell divides: checkpoints. Components of cell division regulation: cyclin: a protein that varies in concentration depending on the cell cycle, cdk: cyclin dependent kinase, remains in constant concentration, mpf: maturation (or mitosis) promoting factor, use this system to control cell division. Ploidy refers to the number of sets of chromosomes: # of sets are important. Diploid # of chromosomes for a horse is 64. Number of sets of chromosomes: haploid= 1 set, diploid= 2 sets, triploid= 3 sets, tetraploid= 4 sets. Aneu is number different from haploid or diploid. Polyploidy vs aneuploidy: polyploidy more than 2 sets of chrom. Aneuploidy: change in the number of a single chromosome.
