The science that studies living things

Biology

100

A prokaryotic cell

is a simple cell without a nucleus 

100

asexual reproduction

offspring that are genetically identical- only one parent DNA is needed

100
The four stages in mitosis 

Prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase

100

What does it mean to be multicellular?

make up of more than 1 cell

200

the amount of characteristics needed to be classified as alive 

seven

200

Type of cell that has a cell wall present

plant cell

200

An advantage of asexual reproduction

is fast

200

The stage that happens before mitosis can begin

Interphase- the chromosomes double in preparation for cell division 

200

what is cancer 

uncontrolled cell division that creates a clump of cells called cancer 

300

Abiogenesis 

the theory that life came from non-living matter

300

Mitochondria 

makes the energy for the cell

300

vegetative reproduction 

Asexual reproduction from a parent plant. A part of the plant is cut off from the original and will continue to grow when placed in soil or whater 

300

the difference between cytokinesis in plant and animal cells

plant: a cell plate grows and separates the two cells

Animal: the cell membrane pinches to form two new cells

300

a benign VS malignant tumour 

benign: non cancerous 

malignant: cancerous 

400

a positive feedback loop in equilibrium 

a reaction that moves further and further from equilibrium 

400

The ribosomes 

makes proteins for the cell

400

Budding

when the parent plant produces a small bud or clone. Can break off and live or stay attached as a separate organism. 

400

What happens in prophase

the chromosomes condense

the nuclear membrane begins to dissolve 

400

haploid VS diploid

haploid: has a half set of chromosomes

diploid: has a full set 

500

The three parts of the cell theory

1. All cells arise from pre-existing cells

2. Cells are the basic unit of life

3. all living things are made of cells

500

The endoplasmic reticulum 

stores proteins and makes fats

500

Parthenogenesis 

When an unfertilized, haploid egg, mature into new organisms. 

500

What happens in anaphase

the chromosomes get pulled apart to the edge of the cell 

the mitotic spindles pull them over

500

how many chromosomes do humans have 

46 (or 23 pairs)
