    Flashcards

    When does DNA replication occur?

    The stage of interphase where DNA is replicated, ensuring each daughter cell receives a complete copy.

    Which phase of mitosis separates sister chromatids?

    During this phase, sister chromatids are pulled apart by spindle fibers towards opposite poles of the cell.

    What type of cells undergo Meiosis?

    Sex cells, or gametes such as sperm and egg cells, are produced through this specialized cell division.

    What's the outcome of meiosis I?

    The first meiotic division halts at the end of meiosis I, resulting in two daughter cells with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.

    What is the prominent feature in animal cells during telophase?

    A groove forms in the plasma membrane, pinching the cell in two, marking the end of mitosis in animal cells.

    Study Notes

    Cell Division Phases

    • DNA synthesis occurs during the S phase of interphase.

    Mitosis

    • Movement of chromosomes to opposite poles occurs during anaphase.

    Meiosis

    • Meiosis occurs in reproductive cells.

    Meiosis I

    • The main outcome of the first division in meiosis is the reduction of the number of chromosomes by half.

    Mitosis in Animal Cells

    • The prominent feature in animal cells during telophase of mitosis is the presence of a cleavage furrow.
