100
The difference in cytokinesis among plant and animal cells.
What is plant- cell plate inside out, animal - furrow pinches outside in
200
one part of the cell theory
What is All living things come from one or more cells, cells are the basic unit of structure and organization, cells come from pre-existing cells.
200

If a cell starts out at 46 chromosomes in G1, how much does it end with after cytokinesis?
What is 46 chromosomes?
300
One difference between a prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell.
What is prokaryotic - less complex, no nucleus eukaryotic - more complex, nucleus, organelles
300
The difference between facilitated diffusion and active transport.
What is facilitated diffusion goes high-low concentration and active transport goes against the gradient at low-high
300
2 organelles that a plant cell has but an animal cell does not.
What is a chloroplast and a cell wall?
300
The process in meiosis when the sets of homologous chromosomes exchange segments of DNA.
What is crossing over?
300
The difference between a benign and malignant tumor.
What is benign stays at the original site while malignant can travel to other parts of the body.

What is a centriole?
500
The phase in mitosis where the sister chromatids are pulled apart and start to move to opposite ends of the cell.
What is anaphase?
