Asexual vs. Sexual Reproduction
Errors in the Cell Cycle
100
This part of the cell cycle contains G1, S, and G2. And is meant for the cell to prepare to divide.
What is interphase?
100
These are the types of cells made during mitosis.
What are body or somatic cells?
100
What type of cells are made during meiosis?
Gametes (Sperm, Eggs, Pollen, Spores)
100
This type of reproduction requires input from two different organisms.
What is sexual reproduction?
100
What is the main quality of cancer cells?
They divide uncontrollably.
200
This part of the cell cycle contains mitosis and cytokinesis, when the cell is actually dividing.
What is M Phase
200
This is the order of the stages in mitosis.
1. Prophase
2. Metaphase
3. Anaphase
4. Telophase
200
This is the number of cells that are produced by meiosis.
What is 4 cells?
200
This type of reproduction produces an exact copy of the parent organism.
What is asexual reproduction?
200
This type of error results in one cell having too many chromosomes and the other having too few.
What is nondisjunction?
300
This is the phase where a second copy of DNA is made, as the cell prepares to divide.
What is S Phase?
300
What stage is this?
What is metaphase?
300
In this division, the cell begins with all 46 chromosomes and ends with 23 chromosomes.
What is meiosis I?
300
What type of division is used for asexual reproduction?
Mitosis
300
This type of mutation results in part of a chromosome being removed.
What is deletion?
400
These are the two reasons that cells would divide.
What are growth and reproduction?
400
In this stage, chromosomes are pulled apart to opposite sides of the cell.
What is telophase?
400
This is how you know if chromosomes are homologous.
What is the chromosomes are the same size and contain the same genes?
400
What type of cell division is required for sexual reproduction?
Meiosis
400
This type of mutation results in part of chromosome being flipped upside down.
What is inversion?
500
State the stages of the cell cycle in order.
1. G1
2. S
3. G2
4. Prophase
5. Metaphase
6. Anaphase
7. Telophase
8. Cytokinesis
500
What stage is pictured here?
What is prophase?
500
This is the number of chromosomes that each cell has at the end of meiosis.
What is 23?
500
This process is the combination of a sperm and egg cell.
What is fertilization?
500
This process, which normally occurs between homologous chromosomes, is the cause of chromosomal mutations.
What is crossing over?
600
This occurs when the cell cycle is unregulated.
What is cancer?
600
This stage of the cell cycle follows mitosis, and is when the cell actually splits in two.
What is cytokinesis?
600
This process, which is when homologous chromosomes swap genetic information, is the reason why no two people ever look the same.
What is crossing over?
600
This is an example of a budding yeast cell. What type of reproduction is this?
What is asexual reproduction?
600
With a few exceptions, like Down Syndrome, this is what most commonly happens when a chromosome mutation or nondisjunction occurs.
What is death?
