speciation
-
It is an evolutionary
process that leads to the
formation of a new and
distinct species that is
reproductively isolated
from another species.
Variation
- means that some individuals have traits better suited to the environment than others.
Natural selection
- can lead to
speciation, where one species gives rise to a new and distinctly different species.
Cell cycle
- is an ordered series of events involving cell growth and cell division that produces two new daughter cells.
During
Interphase
the
cell undergoes normal
growth processes
while also preparing
for cell division.
Mitosis
- This is the stage of chromosome separation and the cell divides into two
separate entities.
The G0 phase, also known as the
resting phase
, is the phase of the cell
cycle during which a cell is neither dividing nor preparing to divide.
Resting phase
- During this period the cell performs regulatory and its basic cellular functions
Does cell cycle control matter?
Yes
G2 phase is also known as the
growth
phase.
The cell again diverts its energy into synthesizing more protein and grows in size to get itself ready for the mitosis stage.
Human beings contain approximately
30
trillion cells
Chromatin
basic material of DNA
Chromosome
denser and coiled version of chromatin
Egg cells have
23
sets of chromosomes
Meiosis
formation of gametes
Telophase
- formation of the cleavage furrow retraction of spindle fibers
Karyokinesis
- new nucleus are formed
Cytokinesis
- formation/complete development of 2 daughter cells
Anaphase
- centrioles break apart chromosomes to separate sister chromatids
Centrioles
- are tube-like structures
xx is for
female
, xy is for
male
