The most common way eukaryotic cells reproduce
What is Mitosis?
What is Budding?
Meiosis results in
4 non-identical daughter cells
What happens to cells during cell division?
they split in two
What is the first stage of the cell cycle
Interphase
How many rounds of cell division does a cell go through during Mitosis?
one
The death of a cell that occurs as a normal, controlled event in an organism
What is Apoptosis?
Meiosis results in these types of cells
gametes/haploid
what happens to chromosomes during cell division
they replicate
What is the jelly like substance inside the cell?
Cytoplasm
What types of cells are made through Mitosis?
dipliod cells. (2 identical daughter cells)
A diploid cell that results from the union of two gametes?
What is a zygote?
What is it called when two chromosomes exchange genes to create more variety than before
Crossing over
What longest stage of cell division?
interphase
The final step during binary fission in prokaryotes
what is cytokinesis?
This phase is called what in Mitosis:
What is anaphase?
This process occurs when a eukaryotic organism in replacing cells that died
Mitosis
What are the 2 kinds of gamete cells
sperm and egg cells
Explain the difference between Mitosis and Meiosis
Mitosis: growth and replacement of cells that are dying
Meiosis: division of cells leading to gametes for reproduction.
The plasma membrane pinches down the middle until the cell is separated.
What is Telophase?
Mitosis involves 1 of each of these phases
Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase
an organized package of DNA that is formed during cell division
What are Chromosomes?
variety of answers...
What are the 3 purposes for cell division
Growth, Reproduction, and Repair
What are 2 of the 3 things happen during the Interphase
Cell growth, DNA replication, and Preparation for Mitosis
