Which of the following is NOT associated with meiosis?
somatic cells
Eukaryotic DNA molecules...
have large amounts of protein dispersed among the DNA molecules.
A portion of a DNA molecules wound around a spool of histone protein is called a...
nucleosome
In eukaryotic cells, which can occur during the stages of mitosis?
fragmentation and disappearance of nuclear envelope and nucleolus
The chromatids detach from one another and become visibly separate chromosomes during
anaphase
Division of the cytoplasm (cytokinesis)
usually accompanies nuclear division.
The distribution of cytoplasm to daughter cells is accomplished during
cytokinesis
The cell plate is composed of
microtubule elements, cellulose, and carbohydrates.
Four of the five answers listed below are events occurring during mitosis. Select the exception.
a. chromosome replication
b. division of centromere
c. lining up of chromosomes at the cellular equator
d. attachment of spindle microtubules to centromeres
e. migration of chromosomes to opposite ends of the cell
chromosome replication
Asexually produced daughter cells are...
identical to each other and to the parental cell.
Different, or alternative, forms of the same gene are called
alleles
The essence of meiosis is that
each gamete receives one member of each pair of homologous chromosomes and gametes are formed that are haploid.
Homologous chromosomes
a. may exchange parts during meiosis.
b. have alleles for the same characteristics even though the gene expression may not be the same.
c. are in pairs, one chromosome of each pair from the father and one from the mother.
d. pair up during meiosis.
e. all of these
Chromosomes of a pair of homologous chromosomes may differ from other chromosomes in terms of...
a. size.
b. shape.
c. alleles they carry.
d. position of the centromere.
e. all of these
Chromatids are
attached at their centromeres and are identical until crossing over occurs.
Meiosis typically results in the production of
four haploid cells.
Gametogenesis is
the formation of sex cells.
Which of the following cells is NOT haploid?
primary oocyte
