QuestionAnswer
Involves the fusion of two separate parent cells sexual reproduction
the process by which a cell divides into two new smaller, daughter cells cell division
involves the production of two genetically identical cells/offspring from a single parent asexual reproduction
cell cycle phase in which the cell grows and replicates DNA interphase
cell cycle phase in which sister chromatids pull apart and move to opposite sides of the cell anaphase
complex of a DNA molecule coiled around special proteins (histones) chromatin
condensed (supercoiled) packages of DNA that contain genetic info chromosomes
the two identical copies of the same chromosome formed by DNA replication sister chromatids
organelles that help with cell division in animal cells centriole
cell cycle phase in which the genetic material condenses (coils) making chromosomes become visible, moving to opposite poles prophase
structure that attaches or holds sister chromatids together centromere
cell cycle phase in which a nuclear envelope forms around chromosomes, spindle fibers disappear, and chromosomes decondense or uncoil to become invisible telophase
phase in the cell cycle in which the cytoplasm completely divides eventually creating two new identical daughter cells cytokinesis
cell cycle phase in which chromosomes line up across the middle of the cell metaphase
the overall division of a cell into two smaller, identical daughter cells (just the division phases) mitosis
proteins that stimulate the growth and division of cells growth factors
a mass of cells tumor
a disorder in which the body cells lose the ability to control cell division cancer
a protein that regulates the timing of the cell cycle cyclins
a process programmed cell death apoptosis
the developing stage of a multicellular organism embryo
cell that can develop into any body cell type EXCEPT tissue around the embryo pluripotent
adult stem cells that are usually LIMITED to only being able to form the tissue where they are found multipotent
cells that are able to form into any type of cell in the body totipotent
PROCESS in which cells become specialized differentiation
unspecialized cell that caan give rise to one or more types or specialized cells stem cells
a hollow ball of cells with a cluster of cells inside known as the inner mass blastocyst

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
