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 process by which the chromosome number is halved.
What is meiosis?
100

The end product of mitosis is the cell having two sets of chromosomes.

What is diploid?

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
The number of cycles that meiosis goes through.
What is two?
200

Cells that have a pair of every chromosome

What are homologous chromosomes?

200

What is purpose of the cell cycle?

Make new cells

200
the phase when chromosomes pull apart toward the poles
What is anaphase?
300

the longest phase in mitosis where chromosomes condense and pair up

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, it holds the chromatids together.

What is a centromere?

300

Name the three phases of the cell cycle in body cells. 

Interphase, Mitosis, Cytokinesis

300

the phase where chromosomes reach the poles and begin to uncoil, and two nuclei are formed

What is telophase?

400

This is the location in your body where mitosis takes place

What is your body cells 

400

The phase of meiosis where crossing over occurs?

What is prophase 1?

400
the name of reproductive cells
What are gametes?
400

The part of the cell cycle where the cell wall completely separates into two. 

What is cytokinesis?

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

the number of cells made by meiosis

What is a 4?

500

Cells that contain half the number of chromosomes, the end result of meiosis. 

What are haploid?

500

The phase of the cell cycle where the nucleus is duplicated (in body cells) 

What is mitosis?

500
the phase where chromosomes become visible
What is prophase?
