Cell Cycle & Cell Division
100
What process is happening in the image?
Crossing over
100
How does asexual cellular reproduction affect genetic diversity?
Asexual reproduction produces clones, so it does not increase genetic diversity.
100
What cellular process forms egg and sperm cells?
Meiosis
100
What occurs during S phase of the cell cycle?
DNA is replicated
200
What happens when a cell can no longer control their rate of growth?
Cancer forms
200
Somatic cells of Asian elephants contained 56 chromosomes. How many chromosomes would its gametes contain?
28
200
How does sexual cellular reproduction affect genetic variation?
Sexual cellular reproduction produces genetically new individuals, increasing genetic variation.
200
What type of cell division is depicted below?
Mitosis
200
Budding is a form of asexual reproduction in plants. If a plant with 48 chromosomes reproduces asexually, how many chromosomes will the new individual contain?
48
300
What stage of mitosis is depicted in the image below?
Metaphase
300
How does meiosis contribute to genetic variation?
crossing over
300
Identify process 1 and 2
1 mitosis
2 meiosis
300
What cellular process allows an embryo to grow?
Mitosis
300
Where does cell division take place? (A, B, C, or D)
Section D
400
What structure separates the sister chromatids and isolates them to opposite poles of the cell?
spindle fibers
400
Describe the cells produced by meiosis.
(# of cells produced, haploid/diploid & genetic variation)
Four haploid daughter cells that are genetically unique
400
Which process produces genetically identical daughter cells?
1
400
In what cells does binary fission take place?
Prokaryotic
400
Which phase of the cell cycle directly prepares for cell division? (Name 1 specific phase)
G2
500
Describe the cells produced by mitosis.
(# of cells produced, haploid/diploid & genetic variation)
2 diploid daughter cells that are genetically identical
500
Which meiotic process creates different combinations of genes within the egg and sperm cell?
Crossing Over
500
Describe how metaphase is different in Meiosis and Mitosis.
In metaphase 1 of meiosis, homologous chromosomes line up at the metaphase plate and then separate.
This does not happen in mitosis.
500
Describe the product of binary fission.
(# of cells produced, haploid/diploid & genetic variation)
2 diploid cells that are genetically identical
