  • prophase is when the nuclear membrane dissolves and releases the chromosome
  • metaphase is when the chromosome are alligned in the middle and centrosome move to opposite poles and produce spindle fibers
  • anaphase is when the spindle fibers pull apart sister chromatids to opposite poles
  • telophase is when two the cells completely/ nearing its separation
  • cytokinesis is the complete duplication of the nucleus and order components
  • somatic cells are also known as body cells
  • mitosis occurs in somatic cells
  • meiosis occurs in reproductive cells
  • diploid chromosomes have 2 copies of a pair of chromosome
  • diploid happens in mitosis
  • haploid produces 1 copy of each chromosome
  • haploid happens in meiosis
  • each chromosome is made up of tightly coiled DNA packed by histones
  • genetics is the study of genes and heredity
  • homozygous when alleles are different
  • heterozygous is when both alleles are same RR, rr
  • recessive genes are hidden
  • dominant genes always show in phenotype
  • phenotype follows the dominant allele
  • DNA is the molecule that contains genetic information
  • the backbone of the dna consists of deoxyribose, phosphate group, nitrogenous base
  • transcription is the process of producing protein from dna copying to form rna
  • translation is protein synthesis by ribosome
  • the three domains in the tree of life are: Archaea, Bacteria, and Eukarya
  • domain is the highest level in the taxonomic ranking
  • king philip came over from great spain
  • kingdom phylum class order family genus spain
  • kingdom is the 2nd most level in taxonomic ranking
  • monera is the only classification in kingdom that has prokaryotic as cell types
  • fungis cannot photosynthesize but has a cell wall
  • protistas as eukaryotic
  • prokaryotic cells have no nucleus and are not cell membrane bound organelles
  • eukaryotic cells have nucleus and are cell membrane-bound organelles
  • protistas are neither plants, animals, nor fungi but are the ancestral link between them
  • fungis are decomposers that releases various elements to soil
  • gymnosperms have cones
  • angiosperms have flowers
  • non-vascular plants have no xylem nor phloem
  • seed bearing plants are gymnosperms and angiosperms
  • plantae vascular non-vascular seed bearing spore bearing algae gymposperm angiosperm
