Parts of a cell
Plants
Genetics
Mitosis
Meiosis
100
This is the brain of a cell
What is the nucelus
100
This is the process plants undergo when they take water, carbon dioxide, and sunlight and make sugar to eat.
What is photosynthesis.
100
In genetics, we use a this box to predict the 4 likely outcomes of two different genes the parents have.
What is a Punnett Square.
100
This is the anagram that helps you remember the steps of Mitosis.
What is PMAT
100
This is how many times cells undergo the PMAT steps in Meiosis.
What is two times.
200
This is where protein is made.
What are ribosomes.
200
This is the part of plant cells that makes them green and carries out photosynthesis.
What are chloroplasts.
200
In order to show that a gene is dominant, we use this type of letter.
What is upper case.
200
This is the phase of mitosis where chromosomes break in half and move away from each other to the other sides of the cell.
What is anaphase.
200
This is the number of cells at the end of meiosis.
What are 4.
300
This is what holds the cell together or encases it.
What is the cell membrane.
300
This is the part of plant cells that make them rigid and stack able.
What are cell walls.
300
If someone has a fully recessive gene (such as blue eyes or blond hair), to two letters that will make up this gene would both be this.
What is lower case.
300
This is the number of cells you will have at the end of mitosis.
What are 2.
300
This is what a cell is called when it only has half of the genes it needs.
What is haploid.
400
This is the powerhouse of cells, because it makes energy.
What are mitochondria.
400
Bees, hummingbirds, and butterflies are all important to plants because they are _______________________.
What are pollinators.
400
This is the amount of chromosome you inherit from your mother or father.
What is 23 or half.
400
This is the phase of mitosis where the chromosomes line up along the middle.
What is metaphase.
400
This is the fancy name used for cells that animals and plants use for reproduction (such as pollen or eggs)
What are gametes.
500
This is the part of cells that takes packages to their final delivery, like a FedEx truck.
What is the Golgi Body.
500
This is the female reproductive part of a plant, once it comes in contact with pollen it will become a seed.
What is a ovule.
500
This is the X-like shape that DNA condenses to once it has been duplicated.
What is a chromosome.
500
These are some of the purposes our cells use mitosis.
What is to heal a wound, to grow, and to replace old cells.
500
In the Prophase I of meiosis, chromosomes exchange genetic information (so you look like grandma & grandpa), this is also known as this.
What is crossing over.
