Meiosis
Terms of Mitosis
The Cell Cycle
Phases
100
The process that results in new cells with genetic material that is identical to the original cell
What is mitosis
100

The process/division by which the chromosome number is halved.

What is meiosis?

100

The end product of mitosis is the cell having two sets of chromosomes. (represents TWO n)

What is diploid?

100
the longest phase of the cell cycle
What is interphase?
100
the phase when the chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell
What is metaphase?
200
The number of phases in mitosis.
What is four?
200
The number of cycles that meiosis goes through.
What is two?
200
This is attached to the spindle fibers that appears in prophase.
What are centrioles?
200

The synthesis of new organelles and the copying of DNA and the division of cells is a process called what?

What is purpose of the cell cycle?

200
the phase when chromosomes pull apart toward the poles
What is anaphase?
300
the longest phase in mitosis where chromosomes condense
what is prophase?
300

The process in meiosis that ensures more genetic variation (main source of genetic variation)

What is crossing over?

300
The part of the chromosome that the spindle fiber attaches to.
What is a centromere?
300
Name the three phases of Interphase.
What are G1, S, and G2?
300

the phase where chromosomes reach the poles and begin to uncoil. Two nuclear envelopes start to form around each set of chromosomes and the cell starts to pinch in.

What is telophase?

400

This is the location in your body where mitosis takes place

What is your body cells or somatic cells?

400

Meiosis produces _____ daughter cells?

What is four?

400
the name of reproductive cells
What are gametes?
400
the name of the phase where DNA is copied
What is the S phase of interphase?
400

the phase where cell growth, making of new organelles and DNA replication occurs

What is Interphase?

500

The purpose of mitosis

What is the replacement of damaged cells or growth, or repair?

500

Meiosis is an example of which type of reproduction?

What is sexual reproduction?

500

How does cancer relate to Mitosis?

Cancer occurs when cells divide uncontrollably.

500

Cytokinesis is described as the division of what?

What is division of the cytoplasm?
500
the phase where chromosomes become visible
What is prophase?
