What is mitosis?
Cell Division
100
Name two structures or organelles that are found inside animal cells.
Ex. Nuclear membrane, plasma membrane, nucleus, chromosomes, centrioles, mitochondria, golgi apparatus, endoplasmic reticulum
100
True or False: All cells make food.
False. All cells can convert food into energy- only plant cells can make food.
100
What gas is needed for oxidation to happen?
oxygen
100
Define duplicate
to copy or a copy
200
What are three stages of mitosis?
Interphase, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase, Cytokinesis
200
This animal cell structure was originally a plant cell and helps to convert food into energy.
Mitochondria
200
Which of these functions does not take place in all cells: a. Making waste b. Creating energy from food c. Dividing d. Attacking other cells
d. Attacking other cells. Only special cells called leukocytes do this.
200
What gas is created as a waste by oxidation?
Carbon Dioxide (CO2)
200
What is oxidation?
A chemical reaction where oxygen is combined with something.
300
In the interphase stage of mitosis, cell structures that contain your DNA duplicate. What are these cell structures called?
Chromosomes
300
What part of the cell makes a wall around the nucleus?
The nuclear membrane
300
Why do all cells have a nucleus?
It contains DNA- your genetic information.
300
What kind of oxidation releases heat and light (in fires, explosions, etc.)?
Combustion
300
What is cellular respiration?
A reaction in the cell where fuel is combined with oxygen in a reaction that creates energy and wastes.
400
Which cell organelles grow spindle fibers and attach to the cell's chromosomes during mitosis?
Centrioles
400
Which part of the cell contains the DNA?
The chromosomes (in the nucleus)
400
What gas do animal cells need to turn fuel into energy?
Oxygen
400
What kind of oxidation only happens inside the cell?
Cellular Respiration
400
What is mitosis?
The process of cell division.
500
List the stages of cell division in order.
Interphase, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase, Cytokinesis
500
Which of these organelles is not involved in mitosis? a. Centriole b. Ribosome c. Chromosome d. Membranes
Ribosome
500
What function of cells makes living things grow?
Cell division
500
What is one thing that combustion and cellular respiration have in common?
They both need oxygen, they both release CO2 as a waste, they both need fuel.
500
What is meiosis?
A kind of cell division that only happens in sexual reproduction.
