The series of events in which a cell grows, prepares for division, and divides to form 2 daughter cells
What is the cell cycle
100
A property of cell membranes that allows some substances to pass across it, while others cannot
What is selectively permeable
100
The movement of dissolved materials across a cell membrane without using cellular energy
What is passive transport
100
Substances move into and out of a cell by one of two processes: __________________ or active transport.
What is passive transport
200
The process by which a cell makes a copy of the DNA in its nucleus before cell division
What is replication
200
The process by which molecules move from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration
What is diffusion
200
The movement of materials across a cell membrane using cellular energy
What is active transport
200
______________ allows organisms to grow, repair damaged structures, and reproduce.
What is cell division
300
A threadlike structure within a cell's nucleus that contains DNA that is passed from one generation to the next
What are chromosomes
300
The diffusion of water molecules across a selectively permeable membrane
What is osmosis
300
The two new cells at the end of the cell cycle
What are daughter cells
300
During the _______________, a cell grows, prepares for division, and divides into two new cells, which are called "daughter cells".
What is cell cycle
400
The first stage of the cell cycle that takes place before cell division occurs, during which a cell grows and makes a copy of its DNA
What is Interphase
400
The process by which the cell membrane takes particles into the cell by changing shape and engulfing the particles
What is endocytosis
400
The second stage of the cell cycle during which the cell's nucleus divides into two new nuclei and one set of DNA is distributed into each daughter cell
What is Mitosis
400
Cell division allows organisms to grow, repair damaged structures, and ___________________.
What is reproduce
500
The final stage of the cell cycle, in which the cell's cytoplasm divides, distributing the organelles into each of the two new daughter cells
What is Cytokinesis
500
The process by which the vacuole surrounding particles fuses with the cell membrane, forcing the contents out of the cell
What is exocytosis
500
Name the phases of mitosis in order
What is Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase
500
During the cell cycle, a cell grows, prepares for _____________, and divides into two new cells, which are called "daughter cells".
