Question
Answer
DNA   a chemical that contains information for an organism's growth and functions  
🗑
chromosomes   a structure in the nucleus of a cell, made of DNA,and containd the genetic information  
🗑
chromatids   one of two identical chromosomal strands into which chromosome splits up-and-down  
🗑
cell cycle   the normal sequence of development and division of a cell  
🗑
mitosis   the part of the cell cycle during which the nycleus divivdes  
🗑
interphase   the period in the cell cycle where the cell lives most of its life growing, developing, and getting prepared for seperation  
🗑
double helix   the spiral arrangement of the two complementary strands of DNA.  
🗑
cytokinesis   division of the cytoplasm of a cell, occurring at the end of mitosis  
🗑
centromere   holds together 2 chromatids in an X shape  
🗑
binary fission   fission into two organisms approximately equal in size.  
🗑
regeneration   the restoration or new growth by an organism of organs, tissues, etc., that have been lost, removed, or injured.  
🗑
asexual reproduction   reproduction only using one cell/organism  
🗑
sexual reproduction   reproduction using 2 cells/organisms  
🗑
prophase   first stage of mitosis during which the nuclear envelope breaks down and strands of chromatin form into chromosomes.  
🗑
metaphase   second stage in mitosis in which the duplicated chromosomes line up along the equatorial plate of the spindle.  
🗑
anaphase   third stage in mitosis in which the daughter chromosomes move away from each other to opposite ends of the cell.  
🗑
telephase   the final stage of mitosis, in which the separated chromosomes reach the opposite poles of the dividing cell and the nuclei of the daughter cells form around the two sets of chromosomes.  
🗑
centrioles   a small, cylindrical cell organelle, seen near the nucleus in the cytoplasm of most eukaryotic cells, that divides in perpendicular fashion during mitosis,  
🗑
budding   a process of asexual reproduction in which an organism develops as an outgrowth of the parent. Then it breaks free once grown all the way and becomes sperate and independent  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
