Cell cycle Quiz

cell cycle

• The cell cycle only includes interphase.
• The cell cycle is divided into three phases: G1, S, and G2.
• The cell cycle occurs only in prokaryotic cells.
• series of events that cells go through as they grow and divide

Chromosome

• A chromosome is a type of protein.
• a threadlike structure of nucleic acids and protein found in the nucleus of most living cells, carrying genetic information in the form of genes.

• A chromosome is a cell organelle.
• A chromosome is a structure that carries genetic information.

homologous chromosomes

• Area where the chromatids of a chromosome are attached

• Pair of chromosomes that are the same size, same appearance and same genes.

• two identical chromosomes that split and contain the same genetic material

• cell division in which the nucleus divides into nuclei containing the same number of chromosomes

Chromatids

• two identical chromosomes that split and contain the same genetic material

• Chromatids are formed during cell division.
• Chromatids are unique segments of DNA.
• Chromatids are the same as centromeres.

centromere

• Ends of the chromosomes

• Area where the chromatids of a chromosome are attached

• two identical chromosomes that split and contain the same genetic material
