What are two cells?
100
At the end of meiosis II, this many cells have been produced.
What are 4 cells?
100
Mitosis is used for this type of reproduction.
What is asexual reproduction?
100
This x-shaped structure is made of DNA coiled around histone proteins.
What is a chromosome?
200
During this process, homologous chromosomes exchange sections of the same genes.
What is crossing over?
200
The phase pictured below shows chromosomes lined up single-file.
What is metaphase II?
200
Meiosis is used for this type of reproduction.
What is sexual reproduction?
200
Mom and dad's chromosomes in a matching pair are called this name.
What are homologous chromosomes?
300
After prophase I, this type of DNA is created and may have genes from both parents.
What is recombinant DNA?
300
During anaphase II, these copied halves of a chromosome are separated.
What are sister chromatids?
300
Daughter cells produced by mitosis have this genetic profile compared to the parent cell.
What is genetically identical?
300
The copied half of a chromosome are called this name.
What are sister chromatids?
400
During metaphase I, homologous chromosomes partner up on one side of the metaphase plate or the other; parental chromosomes will then separate during anaphase I.
What is independent assortment?
400
This phase creates four separate nuclei.
What is telophase II?
400
Daughter cells produced by meiosis have this genetic profile compared to the parent cell.
What is genetically unique?
400
Long, thin protein microtubules that pull on chromosomes have this name.
What are spindle fibers?
500
At the end of meiosis I, cells have either mom's or dad's chromosomes for a given chromosome pair, but not both. They are known as this type of single-chromosome cell.
What is haploid?
500
An organism with a diploid number of 36 will produce gametes with this number of chromosomes.
What is 18 chromosomes?
500
The type of cell division pictured in this model is responsible for genetic diversity.
What is meiosis?
500
These cylindrical collections of microtubules help in the process of cell division by producing the mitotic spindle.
What are centrioles (the centrosome)?
