Cellular Growth, Cell Cycle, and Miosis

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

Question
Answer
Stage in which the cell divides into two daughter cells with identical nuclei   Cytokinesis  
🗑
Substage of interphase immediately after a cell divides   Gap 1  
🗑
Substage of interphase in which the cell copies its DNA in preparation for cell division   Synthesis  
🗑
Stage in which the cell's nuclear material divides and separates   Mitosis  
🗑
Main stage in which the cell grows, carries out normal functions, and duplicates its DNA   Interphase  
🗑
Substage in which the cell prepares for nuclear division and a protein that makes microtubles for cell division is synthesized   Gap 2  
🗑
The cell grows. DNA is duplicated.   Interphase  
🗑
Chromosomes condense. The Nuclear membrane and nucleolus disappear. Spindle apparatus forms.   Prophase  
🗑
Sister chromatids line up at equator.   Metaphase  
🗑
Chromatids are pulled apart toward the poles.   Anaphase  
🗑
Chromosomes arrive at poles. Nuclear membranes and nucleolus reappear. Chromosomes decondense.   Telophase  
🗑
Cell divides. Two cells are formed.   Cytokinesis  
🗑
4 reasons cells divide.   To grow, repair, reproduce, and so they don't get too big  
🗑
The uncontrolled growth and division of cells   Cancer  
🗑
2 Identical strands of DNA   Chromatids (Sister Chromatids)  
🗑
Connects 2 sister chromatids   Centromere  
🗑
A segment for a chromosome that carries information for a protein for a specific trait   Gene  
🗑
Location in a gene; its "Address" on a chromosomes   Locus  
🗑
Cell that contains both sets of homologous chromosomes   Diploid cells (2n)  
🗑
Contain only a single set of chromosomes   Haploid cells (n)  
🗑
Sex cells and contain half the number of chromosomes (n) as somatic (body) cells   Gametes  
🗑
Chromosomal segments are exchanged between a pair of homologous chromosomes   Crossing over  
🗑
type of cell division that reduces the number of chromosomes in the parent cell by half and produces four gamete cells. This process is required to produce egg and sperm cells for sexual reproduction.   Meiosis I  
🗑
First stage of Meiosis I; Homologous chromosomes condense and form pairs during synapsis; spindle fibers form   Prophase I  
🗑
Second stage of Meiosis I; Pairs of homologous chromosomes line up at the cell's equator   Metaphase I  
🗑
Third stage of Meiosis I; Homologous chromosomes separate and move toward opposite ends of the cell   Anaphase I  
🗑
Forth stage of Meiosis I; Homologous chromosomes reach the cell's poles and cytokinesis usually occurs   Telophase I  
🗑
First stage of Meiosis II; Spindle apparatus form; chromosomes condense   Prophase II  
🗑
Second stage of Meiosis II; Chromosomes line up at the cell's equator   Metaphase II  
🗑
Third stage of Meiosis II; Sister chromatids are pulled apart by the spindle fibers and move toward opposite ends of the cell   Anaphase II  
🗑
Forth stage of Meiosis II; Chromosomes reach the cell's poles, the nuclear membrane and nucleolus re-form, and cytokinesis occurs; four cells form   Telophase II  
🗑
The second of the two consecutive divisions of the nucleus during meiosis   Meiosis II  
🗑


   

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.
