| Question | Answer |
| What do eukaryotic cells have that prokaryotic cells do not? | A nucleus |
| Define Osmosis | The movement of water from a high concentration to a low concentration through a semi-permeable membrane. |
| Define Diffusion | The movement of molecules from a high concentration to a low concentration. |
| Define Semi-permeable | Lets some things through but not others. |
| What is the stage of the cell cycle where the chromosomes copy? | Interphase |
| What is the stage of the cell cycle where the chromosomes go to the center of the nucleus and look like spaghetti? | Prophase |
| What is the stage of the cell cycle where the chromosomes line up and there is no longer a nucleus? | Metaphase |
| What is the stage of the cell cycle where the chromosomes pull to opposite ends of the cell? | Anaphase |
| What is the stage of the cell cycle where the two groups of chromosomes are grouped into two new nuclei? (Two nucleus in one cell) | Telophase |
| What is the stage of the cell cycle where the cell splits into two daughter cells? | Cytokinesis |
| What is the order of the stages for the cell cycle? | Interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, cytokinesis |
| What is sexual reproduction? | 2 parent organisms, offspring is a combination of the two parent's DNA, happens in multicellular organisms. |
| What is asexual reproduction? | 1 parent organism splits into two identical daughter cells. Offspring are genetically identical. Happens quicker than sexual reproduction. |
| What is an advantage of asexual reproduction? | Happens quickly |
| What is an disadvantage of asexual reproduction? | What can injure or kill one cell (parent cell) can injure or kill the copies (daughter cells). |
| What is an advantage of sexual reproduction? | Since offspring are combinations of the parents they can adapt and survive more situation. |
| What has to happen before a cell can divide? | Duplicate (copy) the chromosomes (DNA) |
| What is an disadvantage of sexual reproduction? | Takes longer than asexual reproduction. |
| What does unicellular mean? | one celled or single celled |
| What does multicellular mean? | many celled |
