DDES Cell Division
Question | Answer |
---|---|
organisms that have a true nucleus | eukaryote |
all cells consist of these working parts | organelles |
organisms without a true nucleus | prokaryotes |
only known prokaryote | bacteria |
example of a prokaryote | E.Coli |
characteristics of all living things | made up of cells, produced from other cells, acquire and use energy, grow, reproduce, respond to surroundings,are the basic unit of structure |
three main parts of the cell cycle | interphase, mitosis, cytokinesis |
main goal of the cell cycle | to create 2 cells with identical DNA |
the organelle in which the cell cycle takes place | nucleus |
the stage of the cell cycle when DNA is copied and preparing to divide | interphase |
purpose of cell division | growth, reproduction, replacing damaged cells |
simple way in which prokaryotic cells divide | binary fission |
more complicated way in which eukaryotic cells divide | mitosis |
division of sex cells | meiosis |
when organisms can reproduce by themselves | asexual reproduction |
result of meiosis | 4 cells with half the amount of chromosomes |
