What is the fourth stage of mitosis called?

a. Telophase

100
How many stages are there in meiosis II?
4 stages
100

This is the stage a body cell spends most of it's life cycle.

Interphase

100

Are daughter cells genetically identical in meiosis?

b. No.


100
Which process of cell division is used in asexual reproduction?
Mitosis
200

What is the stage after mitosis called?

b. Cytokinesis

200

Meiosis is used for just one purpose in the human body. What is it?

To make gamete cells for sexual reproduction.

200

What stage of Mitosis is this? 

Anaphase

200

What's the difference between the types of cells being created in meiosis and mitosis?

In meiosis, haploid gametes (eggs & sperm) are created. In mitosis, skin cells, blood cells, and all somatic cells are making identical copies of themselves.

200
What is a zygote?
A zygote is the cell formed when gametes fuse.
300

How many cells are created in mitosis? Are they haploid or diploid cells?

Mitosis creates 2 diploid cells

300

How many cells are created in meiosis? Are they haploid or diploid?

4 haploid cells

300

What stage of Mitosis is this? 

Metaphase

300

What is the purpose of mitosis?

To grow, replace worn out cells, and repair tissues.

300
What are the names of the genetically identical cells produced in mitosis?
Daughter cells
400

What happens in the third stage of mitosis?

d. Anaphase. In this stage, the sister chromatids separate into individual chromosomes and are pulled apart.

400

In humans, how many chromosomes does each gamete contain?

23 chromosomes

400

What stage of Mitosis is this? 

Telophase

400

What is the purpose of meiosis?

Meiosis creates genetic variety in 4 haploid cells in order for the organism to reproduce.

400

In meiosis, what separates during anaphase I?

homologous chromosomes

500

The division of the cytoplasm to form two new cells

Cytokinesis

500

How many phases are there in meiosis and what are they?

8 phases: prophase I and II, metaphase I and II, anaphase I and II, telophase I and II

500

What phase of mitosis is this? 

Interphase

500

What is crossing over and when does it happen?

Crossing over is when genes on homologous chromosomes swap. It happens during Prophase I of meiosis.

500

In meiosis, what separates in anaphase II?

sister chromatids
