Cell Cycle and Division
This phase is the longest of the 3 in the cell cycle.
Interphase
Mitosis produces this number of identical daughter cells.
2
One way meiosis is different than mitosis is because it has cells split this many times.
Twice
Chromosomes are made up of two of these connected at the center.
Sister Chromatids
Of the 2 cell division processes we talked about, this one is used for reproduction.
Meiosis
The reason interphase is important to cell division is because it is when DNA undergoes this process.
Replication
This is the first phase of mitosis.
Prophase
At the end of meiosis 2, this many haploid cells have been created
4
Humans have this many chromosomes.
46
This is another name for reproductive cells.
Gametes
The three phases of the cell cycle are mitosis, interphase, and this process where cells fully separate.
Cytokinesis
Instead of haploids, mitosis produces these kind of cells, which contain all the chromosomes an organism has.
Diploid Cells
Gorillas have 24 chromosomes in their haploid cells. That means that their normal cells have this number of chromosomes.
48
The reason why meiosis is important for reproduction is because the 4 cells are this, as they have different chromosomes than each other
Genetically different
The 3 parts that make up interphase are Growth Phase 1 (G1), Growth Phase 2 (G2), and this third phase.
Synthesis Phase (S)
In this phase, the chromosomes begin to unravel back into chromatin
Telophase
In Prophase 1, genes may swap from one chromosomes to another in a process called this.
Crossing Over
Pairs of chromosomes that share the same genes and pair up during meiosis are called this.
Homologous Chromosomes
Spermatogenesis is the process in which haploids become sperm cells. This process is similar, but produces egg cells instead.
Oogenesis
Binary Fission
In metaphase, these structures attach to chromosomes in order to pull them apart in anaphase.
Spindle Fibers
In this phase of meiosis, chromosome pairs line up along the center of the cell.
Metaphase I
The two halves of a chromosome are connected at this point. It's also where fibers connect during some phases of mitosis.
Centromeres
Name 3 types of asexual reproduction
Budding, Binary Fission, Fragmentation
