The regular sequence of growth and division that cells undergo. | The Cell Cycle |
List three things that the cell is doing during interphase. | 1) It grow; 2)makes a copy of it's DNA and 3)prepares to divide into two cells. |
What is the specific process during which a cell copies its DNA? | Interphase |
True or False: One copy of DNA is distributed into each daughter cell during mitosis. | True |
what is it called when the centromeres split and the chromatids separate? | Metaphase |
What is it called when the chromatin condenses to form chromosomes? | Prophase |
What is it called when a new nuclear envelope forms around each region of chromosomes? | Telophase |
What is it called when the chromosomes line up across the center of the cell? | Anaphase |
Is the following sentence true or false? During cytokinesis in plant cells, the new cell membrance forms before the new cell wall does. | True |
What molecules make up the sides of the DNA ladder? | Deoxyribose and phosphate |
What are the phases of mitosis? | 1) Prophase, 2) Metaphase, 3) Anaphase and 4) Telephase |
Which stage of the cell cycle usually last longest? | Interphase |
During which stage of the cell cycle does DNA replication occur? | Interphase |
During which stage of the cell cycle does the cell membrane pinch the cell in two? | Cytokinesis |
Regular sequence of growth and division that cells undergo. | Cell Cycle |
First stage of the cell cycle. | Interphase |
Process in which DNA is copied. | Replication |
Stage of the cell cycle during which the cell's nucleus divides. | Mitosis |
Doubled rod of condensed chromatin. | Chromosome |
Final stage of the cell cycle. | Cytokinesis |
What are vesicles? | A small bubble of liquid within a cell. |
How does the furrow form in an animal cell? | A daughter cell pinch into two cells . |
If you observed a cell under a microscope during cytokinesis, how could you tell whether it was a plant cell or an animal cell? | First, plant cells have structures called chloroplasts, and animal cells don't. Animal cells have a cell membrane and plant cells have a cell wall. |
Why does a cell make a copy of its DNA before mitosiss occurs? | To pass the copy of its DNA to the daughter cell. |
