Terms of Mitosis and Meiosis
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 by which the chromosome number is halved.
What is meiosis?
100

A cell with two sets of chromosomes.

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 names of all of the phases in mitosis.

What are prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, and cytokinesis?

200
The number of cycles that meiosis goes through.

200
This is attached to the spindle fibers that appears in prophase.
What are centrioles?
200

The phase where DNA is copied.

What is the S phase?

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(es) in meiosis that ensures more genetic variation

What are crossing over and independent assortment?

300

The centre part of the chromosome that the spindle fiber attaches to.

500
The purpose of mitosis
What is the replacement of damaged cells or growth?
500

The random lining up of homologous chromosomes at the equatorial plate.

What is independent assortment?

500

The location on the chromosomes where crossing over takes place.

What is chiasmata?
