Cell Reproduction

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Term
Definition
Cell Cycle   The sequence of events that occurs in a cell between divisions  
🗑
Chromatin   Long thin strands of DNA found in the nucleus  
🗑
Chromosomes   The duplicated strands of chromatin that happens during Interphase  
🗑
Chromatids   The thickened coiled up chromosomes in Prophase & Metaphase  
🗑
Centromere   The point where the chromosomes and chromatids connect  
🗑
Interphase   Part One of the Cell Cycle. DNA & chromosomes are duplicated; growth occurs; organelles are duplicated.  
🗑
Mitosis   Part Two of the Cell Cycle; division of the nucleus occurs.  
🗑
Prophase   First step of mitosis; chromosomes coil & thicken & become chromatids; centrioles migrate to the poles of the cell.  
🗑
Metaphase   Second step of mitosis; chromatids line up on the equator; spindle fibers attach to the centromeres of the chromatids  
🗑
Anaphase   Third step of mitosis; centromeres separate; chromatids pull apart and become chromosomes  
🗑
Telophase   Fourth step of mitosis: two new nuclear membranes form at the poles; cytoplasm begins to divide  
🗑
Cytokinesis   Third part of the Cell Cycle; cytoplasm divides; animals form a protein belt; plants form a cell plate  
🗑
Centrioles   A barrel-shaped structures in animal cells that play a role in mitosis  
🗑
Diploid cells   Body cells that have pairs of chromosomes.  
🗑
Haploid cells   The sex cells that have a single set of chromosomes.  
🗑
Zygote   The cell created by fertilization.  
🗑
Meiosis   The process that halves the number of chromosomes and creates the sex cells.  
🗑
Asexual reproduction   A process which produces a new organism from a single parent; offspring are identical to the parent.  
🗑
Regeneration   Aprocess that re-grows lost or damaged body parts  
🗑
Budding   A new organism growing from the body of the parent  
🗑
Binary fission   Reproduction that occurs in prokaryotic cells; the DNA duplicates, then the cell splits.  
🗑
Sexual reproduction   A process where two organisms come together to produce a new organism that is genetically different.  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
