What is 46?
100
Meiosis is part of this type of reproduction.
What is sexual reproduction?
100
In this stage of mitosis, chromosomes uncoil becoming chromatin.
What is telophase?

What is mitosis
200
This happens to chromatids when they separate during mitosis.
What is they become chromosomes?
200

What is 20?
200
In this stage of mitosis, spindle fibers attach to centromeres.
What is prophase?
200

What is gamete
200
Produces 4 daughter cells with the haploid number of chromosomes.
What is meiosis?
300
In the root tip lab, most of the cells observed were in the same stage of the cell cycle. This stage is:
What is interphase?
300
the specialized cells that result from meiosis.
What are gametes?
300
In this stage of mitosis, chromatids line up on the equatorial plane.
What is metaphase?
300
A cell's cytoplasm divides and separates into two cells.
What is cytokinesis?
300
It is importnat that the chromosome number stay constant from one generation to the next. This can be achieved through meiosis by this?
What is reducing the number of chromosomes in gametes?
400
This is produced at the end of mitosis.
What are 2 identical daughter cells?
400
All of these happen in meiosis, except 1: fertilization, crossing over, production of gametes, reduction in number of chromosomes.
What is fertilization?
400
In this stage of mitosis, chromosomes coil and become double stranded.
What is prophase?
400
Type of cell that forms when unregulated cell growth occurs.
What is cancer cells?
400
Mutations in these two types of cells can affect an organism's offspring.
What is egg and sperm?

Crossing over can happen in this stage of meiosis.
What is Prophase I?
500
In this stage of mitosis, sister chromatids move to opposite poles in the cell.
What is anaphase?
500
