Question | Answer |
---|---|
anaphase | The stage where the chromosomes move to opposite ends of the cell |
asexual reproduction | involves only one parent. |
cancer – | out of control cell division |
cytokinesis | the division of the cell cytoplasm |
diploid | having a full set of chromosomes. |
fertilization – | union of the egg and pserm |
haploid | Having a single set of chromosomes. Ex. Sperm or egg |
Interphase (G1, S, G2) | a period of time in which cell prepares for cell division until new cell produces; has a two growth stages and a synthesis of DNA stage. |
meiosis – | the process to divide the nucleus twice to produce 4 sex cells with HALF the chromosome number as the parent cell. |
metaphase | the stage where during which the chromosomes are aligned along the equatorial plate |
mitosis | process in which the nucleus of a cell divides into two nuclei, each with the same number and kind of chromosomes. |
prophase | the first stage of mitosis, during which the chromosomes condense and become visible, the nuclear membrane breaks down |
sexual reproduction | involving two parents. |
telophase | The final stage where the chromosomes of daughter cells are grouped in new cells. |
