Reproduction
One parent making identical offspring.
What is Asexual Reproduction?
The type of cells made from Mitosis cell division.
What are somatic cells?
Type of cells made during meiosis.
What are gametes?
During interphase, DNA is in this thin, stringy shape.
What is chromatin?
The nucleus of the cell has what important function?
What is store DNA, control the cell?
Two parents making genetically unique offspring.
What is sexual reproduction?
These are the purposes of cell division.
What are growth and repair?
What is the end result of meiosis?
What is 4, haploid, unique gametes?
These two identical copies of a chromosome are attached in an X shape and can first be seen in Prophase.
This energy molecule is made in cellular respiration.
What is ATP?
Type of asexual reproduction where organisms regrow body parts.
What is regeneration?
List the steps of the entire cell cycle in order.
Interphase, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase, Cytokinesis
This step in meiosis ensures all DNA in gametes is unique, and it happens in this phase of meiosis.
What is crossing over in Prophase I?
If chromosomes are lined up at the equator of the cell, the cell must be in this phase of mitosis.
What is metaphase?
List the 4 macromolecules and their correct monomer.
Carbs-monosaccharides
Lipids- fatty acids
Proteins- amino acids
Nucleic acids- nucleotides
Type of asexual reproduction where a small growth on a parent organism grows until it breaks off, creating an identical new organism. Commonly seen in Hydra.
What is budding?
This is the end result of mitosis. (be specific)
What is 2, identical, diploid, somatic cells?
This is why it's important for gametes to be haploid.
What is: to ensure offspring have the correct chromosome number?
Liver cells would have this chromosome number.
What is 46?
This is the purpose of photosynthesis in plants.
To create glucose/food.
Reproduction is 1 of the 8 characteristics of life. What are the other 7 characteristics?
cells, DNA, growth and development, metabolism (energy), homeostasis, respond to stimuli, evolve
This step of the cell cycle is necessary to make sure new cells get the correct amount of DNA when cell division happens.
What is S Phase of Interphase?
If a stomach cell of an elephant has 56 chromosomes, how many chromosomes will this elephants sperm have?
28
What are homologous chromosomes?
Two chromosomes that are the same size and have the same genetic information. One comes from mom and the other from dad.
This type of passive transport requires help from a transport protein.
What is facilitated diffusion?
