Mitosis & Meiosis ll
Organelles
Asexual Reproduction Types
Reproduction terms
100
The phase before Mitosis or Meiosis where the cell prepares for replication. It spends most of it's life in this phase.
What is interphase?
100
Little organelles in the center of the chromosomes that connect the chromatids together.
What are centromeres?
100
Many cells that are released from a parent. Most of these cells do not survive.
What are spores?
100
This is where the egg and the sperm are combined outside of the body.
What is external fertilization?
200
Considered the 1st phase of Mitosis and Meiosis, where multiple things happen.
What is prophase?
200
Organelles that house centromeres and are created by two chromatids.
What are chromosomes?
200
A small growth forms on an organism. It continues growing until it detaches from it's parent and becomes it's own organism.
What is budding?
200
The organism(s) created from sexual or asexual reproduction.
What is offspring?
300
The phase where spindle fibers attach to the centromeres on the chromosomes.
What is metaphase?
300
These organelles create spindle fibers to pull in other organelles.
What are centrioles?
300
A small piece of an organism breaks off and grows into a new organism identical to it's parent.
What is fragmentation?
300
Reproduction using only one parent.
What is asexual reproduction?
400
The last phase.
What is telophase?
400
Two of these create a chromosome.
What are chromatids?
400
Single-celled organisms split into two halves, identical to each other.
What is binary fission?
400
The egg and sperm combine inside a body.
What is internal fertilization?
500
Division of the cell.
What is cytokinesis?
500
These pull in other organelles.
What are spindle fibers?
500
Special cells repeatedly divide and produce a structure from which an identical organism will grow.
What is vegetative reproduction?
500
Uses both gametes.
What is sexual reproduction?
