E cell replicates into 2 identical daughter cells
What is mitosis?
An organized package of DNA
What are chromosomes?
An organism that can make male and female gametes
What is a hermaphrodite?
The five stages of mitosis (Technically, one stage isn't part of mitosis, but is usually included in the discussion.)
What are interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase?
Meiosis is split into these two phases.
What are meiosis I and meiosis II?
All phases of the cell life minus mitosis. It includes the G1 phase, the S phase, and the G2 phase of the cell cycle.
What is interphase?
Genetic material divided between 2 cells.
What is karyokinesis?
Computer systems that can do some things that require human smarts
What is artificial intelligence?
This phase of mitosis is marked by the nuclear membrane disappearing, chromosomes becoming visible, and spindle fibers forming.
What is prophase?
This phase of meiosis is to duplicate the DNA and separate the homologs from one another. It includes these stages: interphase, prophase I, metaphase I, anaphase I, and telophase I.
What is meiosis I?
Normal death of a cell
What is apoptosis?
Pairs of chromosomes, one from each parent
What are homologous chromosomes?
Bacteria uses this kind of reproduction to lead to two genetically-identical cells.
What is binary fission?
This phase of mitosis is known for chromosomes lining up in the MIDDLE of the cell.
What is metaphase? (HINT: Meta=Middle)
This phase of meiosis starts with the haploid set of chromosomes, which are still attached to their sisters, and its goal is to separate the sisters from each other. The stages include: prophase II, metaphase II, anaphase II, and telophase II.
What is meiosis II?
A new organism forms as an outgrowth of an organism
What is budding?
A mature haploid cell used in sexual reproduction
What is a gamete?
Yeast uses this kind of reproduction to lead to two genetically-identical cells.
What is budding?
This phase of mitosis is when Sister chromatids PULL APART to opposite sides of the cell.
What is anaphase? (HINT: ANAphase = chromosomes are AWAY from each other!)
This phase of meiosis results in four daughter cells with their haploid set of DNA that are not identical.
What is meiosis II?
Division of cytoplasm into 2 cells
What is cytokinesis?
A diplooid cell from 2 gametes
What is a zygote?
Eukaryotes use this kind of reproduction to lead to two genetically-identical cells.
What is mitosis?
This part if mitosis is when the nuclear membranes reform, chromosomes uncoil, and the cell pinches into two.
What is telophase? (HINT: TELOphase = TWO new nuclei!)
What is the process called when one cell with 32 chromosomes divides into two cells with 16 chromosomes each, while sister chromatids remain attached?
What is meiosos I?
