Meiosis
100

spindle fibers from centrioles attach to each chromosome 

what is metaphase 

100

a type of cell division that  results in two daughter cells each with half the number of the parent cell, as in the production of gametes and plant spores. 

what is meiosis 

100

lack a nucleus

have a single chromosome

reproduce by binary fission

include bacteria 

what is prokaryotes 

100


What is Meiosis

200

DNA coils tightly & becomes visible as chromosomes

nuclear membrane disappears

nucleolus dsaappears 

centrioles migrate to poles 

spindle begins to form 

what is prophase 

200

a type of cell division that results in two daughter cells each having the same number and kind of chromosomes as the parent nucleus, typical of ordinary tissue growth. 

what is mitosis 

200

Used by bacteria

Cells increase their cell mass slightly

DNA & cell components are replicated

Each cell divides into 2 daughter cells

what is steps in binary fission 

300

cell chromosomes are separated

spindle fibers shorten so chromosomes pulled to ends of cell

what is anaphase 

300

cell plants forming in plant cells 

what is cytokinesis 

300

Stages in growth & division

G1 Phase

S Phase

G2 Phase

M Phase

Cytokinesis

what is cell cycle 

400

separation of chromosomes completed

cell plate forms (plants) 

cleavage furrow forms (animals)

nucleus & nucleolus reform 

chromosomes uncoil 

what is telophase 

400

contain a nucleus & membrane bound organelles

asexually reproduce cells by mitosis 

what is eukaryotes 

400

first growth stage 

cell increases in size 

cell prepares to copy its DNA 

what is G1 phase 

500

bonus question 

when were turkeys worshiped as gods 

when is 300 B.C 

While the turkey is currently America's favorite part of the Thanksgiving meal, in 300 B.C. these big birds were heralded by the Mayan people as vessels of the gods and were honored as such

500

prokaryotes bacteria 

eukaryotes plants animals 

what is cell reproduction 

500

copying of all DNA's instruction

chromosomes duplicated 

what is synthesis phase
