Cells divides and produces more cells.
Number of phases of Meiosis
2 (Meiosis I and Meiosis II)
Cell Division where two identical daughter cells are produced
Mitosis
States that the segregation of homologs does not go by a pattern and does not influence each other.
Law of Independent Assortment
Physical division of the cytoplasm
Cytokinesis
The cycle of growth and division of cells
Cell Cycle
Homologues pair off and exchange genetic materials
Cross-Over
Stage in Mitosis where sister chromatids begin to move along the microtubules toward the opposite poles
Anaphase
Genes coming in two versions
alleles
Production of gametes
gametogenesis
Stage where cells spend most of their time before being divided
Interphase
Cell Division that produces haploid cells
Meiosis
Stages in interphase.
G1, S, and G2
An offspring that has the same traits as its parent.
Purebred
Production of sperm cells
spermatogenesis
One reason why cells divide or reproduce
Wound/Cell repair/Creation of an organism
Stage in Meiosis where cross-over occurs.
Prophase I
Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase
States that the homologous chromosomes from each parent separate from each other in meiosis.
Law of Segregation
Cells produced through mitosis
Diploid
Process in which a cell divides to reproduce more cells.
Cell Division
Pairs of chromosomes which have the same set of genes.
Homologues/Homologous Chromosome
Creation of a genetically identical nuclei
Karyogenesis
The phenotypic ratio of two heterozygous green peas. (Yellow is the recessive trait)
3:1
Binary Fission
