CHROMOSOME (Ch 2B) - Coggle Diagram

- - - - has DNA & RNA
      - has proteins (histones & nonhistones)
        
        histone = protein that provides structural support to a chromosome
    - - make up chromosome
  - - - replicated chromosome
  - - - hereditary mat.
      - influence devt & characteristics
      - contains genetic info
      - found in chromatin
    - - CENTROMERE
        
        point where chromatids are joined
        
        where the kinetochore proteins would attach
        
        kinetochore is the protein
        
        where spindle fibers attach
        
        it is a location where chromatids are joined
        
        region of chromosome
      - TELOMERE
        
        end of chromosome
        
        protect ends from destruction
        
        repetitive DNA
      - P ARM
        
        short arm of chromosome
      - Q ARM
        
        long arm of chromosome
    - - METACENTIC
        
        centromere is in the middle
        
        p & q arms are equal lengths
        
        V-shaped during anaphase
      - SUBMETACENTRIC
        
        centromere is near the middle of chromosome
        
        L-shaped during anaphase
      - ACROCENTRIC
        
        centromere is towards the end of chromosome
        
        J-shaped during
        anaphase
      - TELOCENTRIC
        
        centromere is at end of chromosome
        
        1 long, rod-like chromosome
        
        rod-shaped during anaphase
  - - - specific cell function
- - - - replication
  - - - GAP 1 (G1)
      - SYNTHESIS (S)
      - GAP 2 (G2)
