What is the first step to Meiosis 1?
Prophase 1
The control center of a cell.
The nucleus.

Homozygous
How many cells are in the life cycle of a cell?
4
Which is generally larger, an animal cell or plant cell?
Plant cells
How many stages are there in mitosis?
4 or 5. (Some textbooks include interphase as well.)
What controls what goes in and out of a cell?
The cell membrane.
The physical trait of a person or animal. ex. blue eyes.
Phenotype
What is the longest stage of cell division?
Prophase
Are plant and animal cells Eukaryotic cell or a Prokaryotic cell?
Eukaryotic cell
How many times does the cell divide in mitosis?
What part of the cell absorbs sunlight and conducts photosynthesis.
The chloroplast.
A threadlike structure of nucleic acids and protein found in the nucleus of most living cells, carrying genetic information in the form of genes.
Chromosome
What is the shortest phase of cell division?
Anaphase
What is the part of the plant cell that makes the plant green, which isn't in animal cells.
Chloroplasts
What type of cell undergoes meiosis?
Diploid cells
The part of a cell that forms a framework and prevents overexpansion.
Cell Wall
A self-replicating material which is present in nearly all living organisms as the main constituent of chromosomes. It is the carrier of genetic information.

Lysosome
What are sister chromatids?
Exact copy of the chromosome.
What is the ultimate packaging center of a cell.

A cell that has half the usual amount of chromosomes.
Haploid Cell
Which phase comes directly after Metaphase?
Anaphase
