Mitosis
During this phase, sister chromatids are separated for the first time by the spindle apparatus
What is anaphase?
The products of a spermatocyte having undergone meiosis
What are four genetically different haploid cells?
A body cell that continues dividing even though the tissue in which it resides has become overcrowded is ignoring this growth control mechanism
What is density-dependent inhibition?
This structure is where the two sister chromatids are joined together
What is the centromere?
In plants a cell plate forms and separates the two cells during this process
What is cytokinesis?
The duplicated chromosomes line up down the middle of the cell during this phase
What is metaphase?
Three of the products of an oocyte having undergone meiosis are these
What are polar bodies?
The main biological advantage of sexual reproduction over asexual reproduction
What is the offspring have more genetic diversity?
This organelle produces the spindle fibers that move the chromosomes during mitosis
What is the centriole?
During this, DNA is in the form of chromatin and the cell is performing its normal activities
What is interphase?
The nucleus finishes dividing during this phase and the nuclear membrane reforms around each set of chromosomes
What is telophase?
Meiosis is used for this type of reproduction
What is sexual reproduction?
A mass of body cells that grows and divides uncontrollably, but is encapsulated within a layer of connective tissue and does not spread
What is a benign tumor?
A pair of the same number chromosome with one coming from each parent
What are homologous chromosomes?
These two parts of the cell cycle are not actually part of mitoisis
What are interphase and cytokinesis?
Chromatin condenses into chromosomes and the nucleolus disappears during this phase
What is prophase?
Meiosis occurs in this type of cell
What are gametic cells?
The products of a spermatogonium having undergone mitosis
What are two genetically identical diploid cells?
Mitosis occurs in this type of cell
What are somatic cells?
During this process, the cytoplasm of the cell divides, forming a cleavage furrow in animals
What is cytokinesis?
This is the first phase of mitosis
What is prophase?
One major disadvantage of sexual reproduction as opposed to asexual reproduction
What is it requires more energy?
The male gametes
What are sperm?
Looking at a slide of root tip cells, most of them would be in this stage
What is interphase?
During this part of interphase the cell duplicates its DNA
What is the S phase?
