Flashcards

Spermiogenesis

The final stage of sperm development where spermatids transform into mature sperm cells.

What is released during ovulation?

The secondary oocyte, which is a haploid cell, is released from the ovary during ovulation.

Organelles in a fertilized ovum

The fertilized ovum, or zygote, inherits most of its organelles from the maternal egg, except for the double-membranous organelles like mitochondria, which come from the father.

When does the mitotic spindle attach to sister chromatids?

The mitotic spindle, which helps separate chromosomes, attaches to the kinetochores of sister chromatids during prometaphase.

Define mitosis

The process by which a single cell divides into two identical daughter cells; involves distinct phases like prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.

Study Notes

Cell Cycle and Cell Division

  • Question 3: The earliest phase where chromosomes are composed of two identical copies held together at the centromere is the S phase.

Organelle Origin

  • Question 17: Organelles are mostly maternally inherited, except for those with a double membrane.

Cell Cycle Exit

  • Question 13: A cell exits the cell cycle in the G0 phase.

Ovulation

  • Question 16: The cell released from the ovaries during ovulation is the secondary oocyte.

Homologous Chromosome Pairing

  • Question 10: Homologous chromosome pairing occurs during prophase I.

Chromosomes in Female Stomach Cells

  • Question 9: Stomach cells in females have 22 pairs of chromosomes plus two X chromosomes.

Mitotic Spindle Attachment

  • Question 18: Sister chromatids attach to the mitotic spindle during prometaphase.

Spermatogenesis

  • Question 19: Spermatogonia undergo mitosis to form primary spermatocytes.

Somatic Cell Cytokinesis Failure

  • Question 5: A somatic cell that fails cytokinesis will result in a large multinucleated cell.

Centriole Duplication

  • Question 14: Centrioles duplicate during interkinesis without chromosomes duplicating.

Crossing-Over

  • Question 20: Crossing-over and reciprocal DNA exchange between chromatids create recombinant chromatids.

Chiasmata in Primary Oocytes

  • Question 2: Non-sister chromatids of a homologous pair are held together at chiasmata in a primary oocyte.

Metabolically Active Cell Cycle Stage

  • Question 7: G1 is the most metabolically active stage of the cell cycle.

Spermiogenesis

  • Question 15: Spermiogenesis is the process where spermatids change into sperm.

Chromatin and Mitotic Spindle Breakdown

  • Question 6: Loose chromatin in two locations and a broken mitotic spindle indicate the telophase stage.

Sister Chromatid Separation

  • Question 8: Sister chromatids separate during anaphase.

Haploid Cell

  • Question 1: A spermatid is a haploid cell.

Cell Cycle Phase with Doubled Material

  • Question 11: A cell that has doubled its centrioles and genetic material is in the G2 phase.

Cytoskeleton and Cleavage Furrow

  • Question 12: Actin filaments are involved in the cleavage furrow.

Frog Chromosomes

  • Question 4: If a frog has 36 pairs of chromosomes in its somatic cells, the frog egg has 36 chromosomes.
