|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mitosis | Process of cell division in which one parent cell divides into two identical daughter cells with the same number and kinds of chromosomes.
🗑
|
||||
| Meiosis | Process of cell division which results in formation of gametes (sperm and egg) with half the number of chromosomes as the parent cell.
🗑
|
||||
| The phases of the cell cycle | Interphase, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase, Cytokinesis.
🗑
|
||||
| Interphase | Before mitosis begins, chromosomes are copied
🗑
|
||||
| Prophase | Mitosis begins. The nuclear membrane dissolves. Chromosomes condense into rod-like structures.
🗑
|
||||
| Metaphase | The chromosomes line up along the equator of the cell
🗑
|
||||
| Anaphase | Chromatids separate and move to opposite sides of the cell
🗑
|
||||
| Telophase | The nuclear membrane forms around the two sets of chromosomes, and the chromosomes unwind. Mitosis is complete.
🗑
|
||||
| Cytokinesis | In cells that lack a cell wall, the cell pinches in two. In cells that have a cell wall, a cell plate forms between the two new cells.
🗑
|
||||
| Why cells do mitosis | To repair, grow, and replace
🗑
|
||||
| How many times a cell divides during mitosis | 1 time
🗑
|
||||
| How many daughter cells are produced during mitosis | 2 identical daughter cells
🗑
|
||||
| The number of chromosomes change during mitosis | No, the number of chromosomes stay the same
🗑
|
||||
| The final result after mitosis | 2 identical daughter cells
🗑
|
||||
| The final result of mitosis is diploid or haploid | Diploid
🗑
|
||||
| Why cells do meiosis | For sexual reproduction
🗑
|
||||
| How many daughter cells are produced during meiosis | 4 identical daughter cells
🗑
|
||||
| The number of chromosomes change during meiosis | Yes, the number of chromosomes are split during cell division
🗑
|
||||
| The final result of meiosis | 4 sex cells, 1/2 the number of chromosomes than parent cell
🗑
|
||||
| The final result of meiosis is diploid or haploid | Haploid
🗑

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.
