BIOL 1201 Lecture Notes - Lecture 24: Pearson Education, Sister Chromatids, Meiosis
Document Summary
Chromosomes can be unreplicated 1 molecule of dna. Chromosomes can be replicated 2 identical molecules of dna, held together. Cell reproduction: when referring to how much dna, it would be doubled. Division of the nucleus: karyokinesis (mitosis, meiosis) Human somatic (body) cells contain between 7 and 14 picograms of dna. G1, s: most likely to be in g1. Human somatic cells contain between 7 and 14 picograms of dna. A cell in metaphase of mitosis will have how many chromosomes and how much. A cell in anaphase f mitosis will have how many chromosomes and how much. Cell plate---formation plant cells many, twice as much. Ploidy refers to the number of sets of chromosomes. Cyclin: a protein that varies in concentration depending on cell cycle. Cdk: cyclin dependent kinase remains in constant concentration. The diploid number of chromosomes for a hours is 64. The haploid number of chromosomes for a hedgehog is 44. Polyploidy: more than 2 sets of chromosomes.
