Biology Final Review
Chromosomes
• Chromosomes are DNA & its
associated proteins.
 We have 46 chromosomes or 23
pairs of chromosomes.
• In a prokaryotic cell, it is the
main ring of DNA.
Autosomes vs. Sex Chromosomes
•
Autosomes are any chromosomes that are
not directly involved in determining the
sex of an individual.
 We have 22 pairs.
•
Sex chromosomes contain genes that will
determine the sex of the individual.
 We have one pair.
 Females are XX.
 Males are XY.
Autosomes vs. Sex Chromosomes
Gametes
• Gametes are an organism’s
reproductive cells.

5 Stages of the Cell Cycle
5 Stages of the Cell Cycle
• The first 3 stages are collectively
called interphase. (90% of a cell’s
life is spent here.)
1. First growth (G1) phase
 Cell grows rapidly & carries out
routine functions. (Major portion of a
cell’s life is spent here.)
5 Stages of the Cell Cycle
2. Synthesis (S) phase
 Cell’s DNA is copied.
 Each chromosome consists of 2 chromatids
attached at the centromere.
3. Second growth (G2) phase
 Preparations are made for the nucleus to
divide.
 Microtubules are rearranged.
 Organelles are manufactured or reproduced.
5 Stages of the Cell Cycle
4. Mitosis
 The nucleus of a cell divides into 2
nuclei each with the same # and kinds
of chromosomes as the original cell.
5. Cytokinesis
 The cytoplasm divides and 2 new cells
are formed.
3 Checkpoints
• A checkpoint is an inspection point
at which feedback signals from the
cell can trigger the next phase of the
cell cycle or delay it.
1. Cell Growth (G1) checkpoint at the end
of the G1 phase
 Makes the decision of whether or not a
cell will divide.
3 Checkpoints
2. DNA synthesis (G2) checkpoint at the
end of the G2 phase
 DNA replication is checked by DNA
repair enzymes.
3. Mitosis checkpoint at the end of
mitosis
 Triggers the exit from mitosis
4 Phases of Mitosis
1. Prophase
 Chromosomes become
visible.
 Nuclear envelope
dissolves.
 The spindle forms.
 In animal cells, the
centrioles move to
opposite poles and the
spindle forms between
them.
4 Phases of Mitosis
2. Metaphase
 Chromosomes
move to the center
of the cell & line
up along the
equator.
 Spindle fibers link
the chromatids of
each chromosome
to opposite poles.
4 Phases of Mitosis
3. Anaphase
 Centromeres divide.
 The 2 chromatids
(now called
chromosomes)
move toward
opposite poles as the
spindle fibers
attached to them
shorten.
4 Phases of Mitosis
4. Telophase
 A nuclear envelope
forms around the
chromosomes at
each pole.
 The chromosomes
uncoil and return to
chromatin form.
 The spindle
dissolves.
 Cytokinesis begins.
Cytokinesis
•
•
•
•
Division of the cytoplasm of a cell
Follows the division of the cell’s nucleus by
mitosis or meiosis
Cytokinesis in animal cells occurs when a
belt of protein threads pinches the cell
membrane in half.
Cytokinesis in plant cells occurs when
vesicles from the Golgi apparatus fuse to
form a cell plate.
Cytokinesis
•
Cytokinesis in
animal cells
Cytokinesis in
plant cells
Define Meiosis
• A process in cell division during which the number
of chromosomes decreases to half the original
number by two divisions of the nucleus, which
results in the production of sex cells (gametes or
spores)
What are the 4 things that give rise
to variation within a species?
• Independent assortment
• Crossing-over
• Random fertilization
• Mutations
Differentiate between
spermatogenesis & oogenesis.
• Spermatogenesis
2 nuclear
divisions in which
the cytoplasm is
divided equally
4 sperm
produced from
parent cell
Differentiate between
spermatogenesis & oogenesis.
• Oogenesis
First nuclear division,
cytoplasm divides
unequally – one of
the cells gets nearly
all of the cytoplasm
This cell will
ultimately give rise to
one egg – the 3 polar
bodies will die

Compare Mitosis and Meiosis
What are the 3 different ways
asexual reproduction occurs?
• In asexual reproduction, a single parent
passes exact copies of all of its DNA to its
offspring.
• Fission
• Fragmentation
• Budding
Nondisjunction
• One or more chromosomes fail to separate
properly during meiosis.
• One gamete ends up receiving both
chromosomes and the other gamete receives
none.
• Trisomy occurs when the gamete w/ both
chromosomes fuses w/ a normal gamete,
resulting in an offspring w/ 3 copies of a
chromosome instead of 2.

the electrons to replace those lost by the
chlorophyll molecules.
Photosynthesis

chemical energy that is temporarily
stored in ATP and NADPH.
