Prophase
Metaphase
Anaphase
Telophase
What process is happening in the image?
Crossing over
Define apoptosis.
Programmed cell death
How many cell divisions does each process go through?
Meiosis: _____
Mitosis: _____
Meiosis: 2
Mitosis: 1
What occurs during S phase of the cell cycle?
DNA is replicated
What happens when a cell can no longer control their rate of growth?
Cancer forms
Which process creates different combinations of genes within the egg and sperm cell, during prophase I of meiosis?
Crossing Over
Identify process 1 and 2
1 mitosis
2 meiosis
What cellular process forms egg and sperm cells?
Meiosis
Where does cell division take place? (A, B, C, or D)
What stage of mitosis is depicted in the image below?
Metaphase
Describe the cells produced by meiosis.
(# of cells produced, haploid/diploid & genetic variation)
Four haploid daughter cells that are genetically unique
Which process produces genetically identical daughter cells?
1
Which type of cells do binary fission?
Bacteria
Which phase of the cell cycle directly prepares for cell division? (Name 1 specific phase)
G2
Describe the cells produced by mitosis.
(# of cells produced, haploid/diploid & genetic variation)
2 diploid daughter cells that are genetically identical
Somatic cells of Asian elephants contained 56 chromosomes. How many chromosomes would its gametes contain?
28
Describe how Metaphase is different in Meiosis and Mitosis.
In Metaphase 1 of meiosis, homologous chromosomes (pairs) line up at the equator and spindle fibers attach to centromeres.
In Metaphase of mitosis, the chromosomes line up at the equator in a single file line, NOT in pairs. Spindle fibers attach to centromeres.
What structure separates the sister chromatids and isolates them to opposite poles of the cell?
spindle fibers
What 2 phases are the main stages of the cell cycle?
Interphase and mitosis
