What is Telophase?

Back

Telophase is the final stage of mitosis and meiosis where the chromosomes arrive at opposite poles, and the nuclear envelope re-forms around each set of chromosomes.

Front

What is Turner syndrome?

Back

Turner syndrome is a genetic condition that affects females, characterized by the absence of one X chromosome, leading to various developmental issues.

Front

What is Prophase II?

Back

Prophase II is the second phase of meiosis II, where the chromosomes condense and become visible, and the nuclear envelope breaks down.

Front

How many chromosomes do humans inherit from each parent?

Back

Humans inherit 23 chromosomes from each parent, totaling 46 chromosomes.

Front

What is the purpose of Mitosis?

Back

Mitosis is a process of cell division that results in two identical daughter cells, primarily for growth and repair.

Front

What is Meiosis?

Back

Meiosis is a type of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half, producing four genetically diverse gametes.

Front

What happens during Anaphase?

Back

During Anaphase, the sister chromatids are pulled apart to opposite poles of the cell.

Front

What is the difference between Mitosis and Meiosis?

Back

Mitosis results in two identical cells, while meiosis results in four genetically diverse cells.

Front

What is Cytokinesis?

Back

Cytokinesis is the process that follows mitosis or meiosis, where the cytoplasm divides, resulting in two separate cells.

Front

What is Klinefelter syndrome?

Back

Klinefelter syndrome is a genetic condition in males characterized by the presence of an extra X chromosome, leading to physical and developmental challenges.
