Questions and Answers

What are cells?

Cells are the basic structural and functional units of all living organisms.

How do cells reproduce?

Cells reproduce conformally through a process called mitosis or meiosis.

How many phases is mitosis divided into?

Mitosis is divided arbitrarily into four phases: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.

Describe what happens during prophase.

During prophase, the nuclear envelope disappears, chromosomes begin to appear, and a mitotic spindle forms. Signup and view all the answers

What occurs during metaphase?

During metaphase, chromosomes align along the equatorial plane, becoming the shortest, thickest, and most individualized. Signup and view all the answers

Explain what happens in anaphase.

In anaphase, each chromatide of each chromosome separates and migrates to opposite poles of the cell. Signup and view all the answers

Describe telophase.

In telophase, chromosomes decondense, new nuclear envelopes form, and two distinct cells develop, each with the same genetic information as the original cell. Signup and view all the answers

Study Notes

Musique: topic is growth and reproduction in living organisms, specifically focusing on cells and their growth cycles.
Cells are the basic structural and functional units of all living organisms, possessing a genetic heritage in the form of DNA.
Cells reproduce conformally through a process called mitosis or meiosis.
Mitosis involves the continuous process of chromosome reproduction, with cells not all being in mitosis at the same time.
Mitosis is divided arbitrarily into four phases: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
Prophase: the nuclear envelope disappears, chromosomes begin to appear, and a mitotic spindle forms.
Metaphase: chromosomes align along the equatorial plane, becoming the shortest, thickest, and most individualized.
Anaphase: each chromatide of each chromosome separates and migrates to opposite poles of the cell.
Telophase: chromosomes decondense, new nuclear envelopes form, and two distinct cells develop, each with the same genetic information as the original cell.
During interphase, the genetic material (DNA) is distributed and the cell grows, with different phases like G1, S, and G2.
G1: cell growth phase post-division.
S: DNA replication phase, where the DNA quantity is multiplied.
G2: preparation phase for mitosis, where organelles multiply.
Growth and DNA replication occur before mitosis.
During interphase, the genetic material is present in a less dense, granular form called chromatin.
Mitosis ensures the reproduction of identical daughter cells with the same genetic information.
