When does the spindle attaches to what structure?
the spindles attach to chromosomes and centrioles
What is a function of a centiole?
It attaches to chromosomes and split them evenly to both sides of the dividing cell.
What a tendon does to muscles and bones?
Attaches them together.
What a tendon to muscles and bones?
Attaches them together.
How does metaphase 1 differ from metaphase in mitosis?
In mitosis metaphase the mitotic spindel attaches to one side of a pair of chromosomes and seperates them so that one chromosome ends up on each side. In metaphase 1 of meiosis, the mitotic spindel only attaches to one pair of chromosomes from one side, so that when anaphase occures that pair of chromosomes will end up on one side. overall - mitosis metaphase- chromosomes split - meiosis metaphase 1- chromosome pair stay together and end up one side of the cell.
On this pair of chromosomes, what alleles are linked?
On this pair of chromosomes, the linked alleles are those that are physically close together and tend to be inherited together.
What happens to the amount of chromosomes during cell division?
During cell division the chromosomes are copied and they form sister chromatids. Then the mitotic spindle attaches to the sister chromatids and pulls them apart, splitting the nucleus in two. Then the cell goes through cytokenesis and the cell membrane is pinched together in the center, this divides the organelles and the cytoplasm between the two daughter cells.
Where would you find the centromere and kinetochore?
The centromere is a region of a chromosome that holds sister chromatids together, typically located near the center of the chromosome. The kinetochore is a protein structure located at the centromere that attaches the chromosome to spindle fibers during cell division.
Are genes inherited the same way as chromosomes?
Genes are contained in chromosomes - therefore they are inherited together.
What holds homologous chromosomes together?
Homologous chromosomes are held together by a protein structure called the synaptonemal complex during meiosis. This complex helps align the chromosomes and facilitate genetic recombination between homologous chromosomes.
What is the region of chromosomes where paired chromosomes are joined?
The centromere is the part of the chromosome where sister chromatids are joined together.
What are the differences and similarities between muscles and ligaments and tendons?
Histologically they are generally the same however a ligament attaches two bones together and a tendon attaches a muscle to a bone.
