Which type of cells undergo the process of mitosis?

Somatic Cells (Body Cells)

100

What cellular division process results in genetic diversity?

Meiosis

100

Tax Man:

Define Cancer.

Rapid and uncontrolled cell division.

100

What is the process called when chromosomes touch and swap information?

Crossing Over

100

Trade Request:

Where is an anticodon located?

On tRNA

200

What is the purpose of mitosis?

Growth and Repair

200

What is the term given to the 4 unique daughter cells that result from meiosis?

Gametes (Sperm and Egg Cells)

200

What type of cells does Cancer occur in?

Somatic

200

Explain how trisomy 21 happens.

The sperm or egg cell contains an extra chromosome for the 21st pairing.

200

Compare and Contrast Aerobic/Anaerobic Respiration in terms of energy.

Aerobic produces more ATP, thus generating more energy.

Anaerobic produces less ATP, thus generating less energy.

300

Double Jeopardy:

If a human skin cell has 46 chromosomes, how many will each daughter cell have as a result of mitosis?

46

300

If humans have 46 chromosomes in their somatic cells, how many will their gametes have?

23

300

Cancer is an error during what type of cellular division?

Mitosis (Asexual)

300

What can a DNA mutation change?

The type of protein being produced that can determine traits.

300

What organelles in a plant cell work to make and use energy? Explain how.

The chloroplast makes glucose, which is stored energy. The mitochondria uses the glucose to release energy.

400

What must happen prior to mitosis to ensure that the daughter cells have the correct amount of genetic information necessary?

DNA Replication

400

Trade Request:

What is the term used to describe the ploidy in reference to gametes?

Haploid

400

What type of tumor is known to spread?

Malignant

400

How quickly do chromosomal mutations have an effect?

Immediately 

400

What type of cells contain membrane bound organelles?

Eukaryotic

500

Compare/contrast parent cells to daughter cells after mitosis.

Mandatory Generosity:

The two daughter cells are identical to the parent cell in every way.

500

Draw a rough model of meiosis.


500

All or Nothing:

Metastasis  

500

Double Jeopardy:
