Genetic Variation
Cell Structure in a Cell
Asexual Reproduction
Sexual Reproduction
The Cell Cycle
100
This is the ultimate source of genetic variation
What is mutation
100
This is short for adenosine triphosphate
What is ATP
100
When an organism reproduces genetically identical offspring
What is asexual reproduction
100
The creation of genetically diverse offspring by the fusion of two haploid gametes
What is sexual reproduction
100
This is a series of orderly events in a cell, from a dividing parent cell to two daughter cells
What is cell cycle
200
Examples of this are adenine, thymine, guanine, or cytosine
What is nucleotide
200
This is the powerhouse of the cell
What is mitochondria
200
a type of reproduction where the parent cell divides into two genetically identical daughter cells
What is binary fission
200
Sexual reproduction is desired when this occurs
What is natural selection
200
This is a type of cell division in multicellular organisms that produce genetically identical cells
What is mitosis
300
Some mutations are tolerated others are this
What is fatal
300
The plasma membrane are made up of this
What is bilayer of phospholipids
300
A cytoplasmic division of a cell
What is cytokenisis
300
Cells have this many chromosomes per cell
What is 23
300
In this phase, DNA is replicated and cell prepares for mitosis
What is interphase
400
This is why all daughter cells of meiosis are genetically different from their parent cell and from one another
What is different combinations
400
Cells with external projections of the plasma membrane
What is flagella or cilia
400
The typical cell takes this percentage of time in interphase
What is 90
400
Gametes originate from a special line of embryonic cells called this
What is germ cells
400
The first few cell divisions of an animal zygote
What is cleavage
500
In a human this, up to sixty crossing over events may occure during meiosis
What is germ cell
500
Small, circular, double-stranded DNA pieces that are separate from the chromosomal DNA found in the nucleiod region
What is plasmids
500
A type of asexual reproduction in which a new organism grows from the body of the parent
What is budding
500
These are immature gametes
What is spermatogonia or oogonia
500
A specialized region on the centromere of the chromatid to which microtubules attach during cell division
What is kinetochore
