Cell Reproduction Vocab 1
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| the third main stage of the cell cycle, during which the cell’s cytoplasm divides, creating a new cell | Cytokinesis |
| reduction division process, occurring only in reproductive cells, in which 1 diploid cell produces 4 haploid cells that are not genetically identical | Meiosis |
| The condensed form of DNA in the nucleus of the cell | Chromatid |
| the last stage of mitosis in which nucleoli reappear. Two new nuclear membranes begin to form, but the cell has not yet completely divided. | Telophase |
| the first stage of the cell cycle, during which a cell grows, matures, and replicates its DNA | Interphase |
| the second stage of mitosis in which motor proteins pull sister chromatids to the cells equator | Metaphase |
| the process of cellular reproduction that occurs in three main stages- interphase (growth), mitosis (nuclear division), and cytokinesis (cytoplasm division) | Cell cycle |
| one of two paired chromosomes, one from each parent, that carries genes for a specific trait at the same location | Homologous Chromosomes |
| the exchange of chromosomal segments between a pair of homologous chromosomes during prophase 1 of meiosis | Cross over |
| the first stage of mitosis, during which the cell’s chromatin condenses into chromosomes | Prophase |
| the second main stage of the cell cycle during which the cells replicated DNA divides and two genetically identical diploid daughter cells are produced | Mitosis |
| the third stage of mitosis in which sister chromatids are pulled apart and microtubules, along with motor proteins, move the chromosomes to opposite poles of the cell | Anaphase |
