binary fission   a form of asexual reproduction in which a single parent cell replicates its genetic material and divides into two equal parts  
🗑
budding   a form of asexual reproduction in which areas of an individual may undergo repeated mitosis and cell division and can develop into an identical organism  
🗑
cancer   the result of uncontrolled cell division  
🗑
cell cycle   the three stages of the life of a cell, including the sun, the moon, planets and the stars  
🗑
clone   an identical genetic copy of an organism's parent  
🗑
cytokinesis   the final stages of the cell cycle, which separates the two nuclei and cell contents into two daughter cells  
🗑
fragmentation   a form of asexual reproduction in which each fragment of an organism develops into a clone of its parent  
🗑
interphase   the first and longest stage of the cell cycle, in which cells carry out life functions and cells that divide prepare for cell division  
🗑
mitosis   the second, and shortest stage of the cell cycle; the process in which the duplicated contents of the cells nucleus divides into two equal parts  
🗑
replication   the process during which the cell copies 3 billion base pairs of DNA information it the nucleus  
🗑
spindle fibres   tiny tube-like structures made of protein to which chromosomes attach during cell division  
🗑
spore   reproductive cells that grow into new individuals by mitosis  
🗑
stem cell   cells that have the potential to become many different types of cells; two types of stem cells are embryonic stem cells and adult stem cells  
🗑
vegetative reproduction   reproduction in which special cells, usually in plant stem cells and plant roots, divide repeatedly to form structures that will eventually develop into a plant identical to the parent

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.
