A cell plate forms in cytokinesis in plant cells.
Cells are the basic units of life.
Cell spends most of their life in prophase I during meiosis I
The two main phases of the cell cycle are the cytokinetic phase and interphase.
The phase in which a cell spends most of its life is interphase.
During the mitotic phase, the nucleus divides.
Some cells stop the cell cycle in the interphase G1 stage.
A unicellular organism called a prokaryote does not have a membrane-bound nucleus.
The period of growth and development in the cell cycle is called interphase.
The process by which cells duplicates takes the same amount of time no matter which type of cells are duplicating.
Chromatids separate at the beginning of this phase.
The chromosomes move toward the center of the cell.
A chromatid from each pair is now attached at each pole.
The cell grows rapidly and the DNA or Chromosomes are being duplicated
Separate spindle fibers become attached to the centromeres of each chromosome.
Separate chromosomes are not clearly visible but the chromatin has become thicker and shorter.
Enumeration: Give the three non membrane bound organelles
Synapsis of homologous chromosomes.
It involves the separation of homologous chromosomes.
The daughter cells have double-stranded chromosomes.
The daughter nuclei produced have single-stranded chromosomes.
The crossing-over of chromosome occurs.
Equational Division
The diploid chromosome number in an organism is 46. The number of chromosomes in its gametes is normally
The type of cell division that occurs in body cells is known as :
In which phase of the cell cycle is DNA replicated?
At which cell cycle checkpoint is the cell cycle halted if the cell's DNA is damaged?
Which statements best explains the evolutionaryadvantage of meiosis?
Meiosis II performs
Synapsis occurs between
In plants and protists, the cell walls are composed of fibers of the polysaccharide cellulose, whereas in fungi, cell walls are composed of chitin
Animal cells secrete an elaborate mixture of glycoproteins into the space around them, forming the extracellular matrix.
Cilia are extensions of the plasma membrane that are smaller and more numerous than microvilli.
Cytoskeleton occurs in pairs, usually located at right angles to each other near the nuclear membranes.
Chloroplasts metabolize sugar to produce ATP while Mitochondria harness light energy to produce ATP and synthesize sugars.
Both mitochondria and chloroplast have their own DNA.
In eukaryotes, most of the genetic material lies in a single circular molecule of DNA (Plasmid).
Eukaryotes have endomembrane system.
Prokaryotes have no nucleus
The three basic structural similarities of Prokaryotes and Eukaryotes are cytoplasm, plasma membrane and nucleus
Peroxisomes are part of the endomembrane system.
Bacterial cell walls are made up of peptidoglycan
The underlying difference between prokaryotes and eukaryotes is the existence of the NUCLEUS.
Vacuoles in animal cells are larger than vacuoles in plant cells
Nucleus is the largest and most easily seen organelle within a eukaryotic cell
Nucleosomes are proteins found in eukaryotic cell nuclei that package and order the DNA into structural units called histones.
Nucleolus is the site of protein synthesis
Ribosomes can be found in all cell types from all three domains of life.
One of the major roles of lysosomes is to break down fatty acids and produce energy in the form of ATP
Animals have both chloroplasts and mitochondria
