What are repetitive DNA sequences in the ends of chromosomes called?
Telomeres
Ends of chromosomes that get shorter each time a cell divides?
Telomeres.
What is telephase?
Telephase is when all the Chromosomes go to diffrent ends of the Cell.
What is a stage of mitosis where the identical chromosomes separate and move to the opposite ends of the cell?
Metaphase
Are like the words that make up the books of instructions called chromosomes?
The instruction on chromosomes is called genetic information and is encoded on regions on the chromosome called genes
Are Genes present in heterochromatin readily expressed?
No. Heterochromatic regions of DNA are not readily expressed as they are densely packaged. Some of these regions do not code for genes at all.
What role do chromosomes play in inhertance?
Genes are located on chromosomes. Genes are simply regions on chromosomes that code for polypeptides.
Are telomeres the regions of chromosomes that code for protein?
No, they don't code for anything. They are repetitive sequences at the ends of chromosomes that protect them from gene loss during cell division. Genes code for protein or RNA.
The sequencing of human chromosomes 21 and 22 showed that?
some regions of chromosomes do not code for proteins
Do you need to have a disorder to have heterochromatic eyes?
Nope. It is usually a quirk of nature.
What are repetitive DNA sequences in the ends of chromosomes called?
Telomeres
X-shaped regions created when chromosomes crossover are called?
chiasmata
What are facts about anaphase?
chromosomes have separated................chromosomes go to oppisite ends of the cell..............spindle fibers push against eachother.
What phrase has pairs of chromosomes separating and moving to opposite ends?
Anaphase.
Ends of chromosomes that get shorter each time a cell divides?
Telomeres.
What is telephase?
Telephase is when all the Chromosomes go to diffrent ends of the Cell.
What happens to the chromosomes during the stage cycle when the nucleus divides?
The Chromosomes separate from each other and move to opposite ends of the cell.
