Phases of Cell Cycle - Mitosis
Mitosis or Meiosis
Unicellular or Multicellular
Asexual or Sexual Reproduction
Asexual Cell Division
100

Where the cells spend most of their time...

(The period in the cell cycle in which a cell grows, maintains itself, and prepares for division)

Interphase

This is the longest part of the cell cycle. 

100

Cell division that results in 2 genetically identical daughter cells

MITOSIS

100

Humans, Animals, Plants, and Fungi are these types of organisms...

Multicellular Organisms

100

One parent organism

Asexual Reproduction

100

This type of Asexual cell division in which the unicellular organism replicates DNA and splits in two. 

(Example: Bacteria)

What is this called?

Hint: B_____ F______

Binary Fission

200

Immediately after Mitosis, the division of the parent cell's cytoplasm takes place. This part of the cell cycle is called....

Cytokinesis


200

Cell division that produces haploid sex cells or gametes (which contain a single copy of each chromosome)

MEIOSIS

200

The primary function of cell division in these organisms is reproduction.

Unicellular Organisms

200

Two parent organisms

Sexual Reproduction


200

Type of Asexual Reproduction when an organism develops tiny outgrowths. Usually when the outgrowth is completely formed it breaks off to become a separate organism. 


Budding

300

In this stage, the chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell.

Metaphase

300

goal of _______ is to produce a new cell that is identical to the parent cell.

MITOSIS

300

 All prokaryotes, bacteria, and amoebas are these type of single-celled organisms. 

Unicellular Organisms

300

Offspring's genes are identical to parent's genes

Asexual Reproduction

300

The ability for an organism to grow back parts of their bodies that are broken off. 

Sometimes a body part breaks off and grows into a whole new organism. 

Regeneration

400

During this phase of the cell cycle, DNA replicates in preparation for mitosis. 

Interphase

400

The goal of ________ is to produce gametes (sperm or egg) that have half the DNA of the parent cell.

MEIOSIS

400

These organisms do not have a nucleus

Unicellular

400

Offspring's genes are combined from 2 parents

Sexual Reproduction

400

What type of Asexual cell division is taking place in this Paramecium?

Binary Fission

500

The phases of mitosis when Chromatids of each chromosome split into two separate chromosomes.

The separated chromosomes are pulled to opposite sides of the cell.

Anaphase

500

You fell down and skinned your knee...what form of cell division will repair your wound?

MITOSIS

500

In these type of organisms, cell division functions in growth, repair, and development.

Multicellular Organisms

500

Organisms that use this type of reproduction can reproduce quickly

Asexual Reproduction

500

What type of Asexual Reproduction is happening here?
