Meiosis
Terms of Mitosis
The Cell Cycle
Phases
100
The process that results in new cells with genetic material that is identical to the original cell
What is mitosis
100

The production of gametes and type of cell division that results in four daughter cells each with half the number of chromosomes of the parent cell

What is meiosis?

100

The identical copies formed by the DNA replication of a chromosome, with both copies joined together by a common centromere or 'one-half' of the duplicated chromosome

What are sister chromatids? 

100
the longest phase of the cell cycle
What is interphase?
100
the phase when the chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell
What is metaphase?
200
The number of phases in mitosis.
What is four?
200

How many phases are in meiosis?  

Two phases. Meiosis I & II

200
This is attached to the spindle fibers that appears in prophase.
What are centrioles?
200
The synthesis of new organelles and the copying of DNA
What is purpose of the cell cycle?
200
the phase when chromosomes pull apart toward the poles
What is anaphase?
300
the longest phase in mitosis where chromosomes condense
what is prophase?
300
The process in meiosis that ensures more genetic variation
What is crossing over?
300
The part of the chromosome that the spindle fiber attaches to.
What is a centromere?
300
Name the three phases of Interphase.
What are G1, S, and G2?
300
the phase where chromosomes reach the poles and begin to uncoil
What is telophase?
400
This is the location in your body where mitosis takes place
What is your body cells or autosomes?
400

The phase of meiosis where crossing over occurs?

What is prophase I?

400
the name of reproductive cells
What are gametes?
400

The name of the phase where DNA is synthesized

What is the S phase of interphase?

400
the phase where the cytoplasm pinches off
What is cytokinesis?
500
The purpose of mitosis
What is the replacement of damaged cells or growth?
500

What is the result of meiosis? 

4 daughter or haploid cells

500

A set of one maternal and one paternal chromosome that pair up with each other inside a cell during fertilization.

What are homologous chromosomes? 

500

The phase in interphase where DNA is replicated.

500
the phase where chromosomes become visible
