Between cell divisions, DNA is long and stringy and exists as |
Chromatin |
|
DNA makes a blank of itself before cell division. |
copy |
|
In eukaryotes, the DNA wraps around proteins to make a compact structure called a |
chromosome |
|
The two copies of DNA make up the two identical halves of chromosomes. Each half is called a |
sister chromatid |
|
The two chromatids are attached at apoint called a |
centromere |
|
When the cell divides, each of the two new cells will receive one chromatid from each |
chromosomes |
|
Humans have blank pairs of chromosomes for a total of blank. |

|
Blank is the process by which cells reproduce. |
Cell Division |
|
Blank is the process of cell division in prokaryotes. |
Binary Fission |
|
Blank is the process of cell division in eukaryotes. |
Mitosis |
|
Mitosis results in 2 new cells with genetic material that is blank to the genetic material of the original cell |
Identical |
|
Mitosis occurs in organisms undergoing... |
Growth, Development, Repair, and Asexual reproduction. |
|
Blank reproduction is the production of offspring from one parent. |
Asexual |
|
One example of asexual reproduction is blank seen in bacteria. |
Binary fission |
|
The blankis the repeating set of events in the life of a cell. 17.The time between cell division is called blank. |
Cell Cycle Interphase |
|
The time between cell division is called |
interphase |
|
Blank consists of three phases: a). blank of the cell b.) blank of the DNA (synthesis) |
Interphase a.)growth b.)replication |
|
Mitosis is the division of the blank, which occurs during cell division. |
nucleus |
|
Mitosis is divided into stages: |
Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase. |
|
Mitosis results in blank daughter cells that are genetically identical to the original cell. |
2 |
|
Blank is the first phase of mitosis. a) Chromatin condenses to form... b.) The nucleolus and the nuclear membrane break down and... c.)In animal cells, cylindrical bodies called centrioles appear which produce |
Prophase a.)chromosomes b.) disappear c.) spindle fibers |
|
Blank is the 2nd phase of mitosis. a.)Spindle fibers attach to the blank of the chromosomes and move them to the center of the dividing cell. |
Metaphase a.) centromere |
|
The third step of mitosis is... a.) The chromatids of each chromosome separate at the centromere and slowly move toward the blank poles of the dividing cell. |
Anaphase a.) opposite |
|
The fourth step of mitosis is... a.) The spindle fibers disassemble b) the chromosomes return to a less tightly coiled blank state. c.) A blank envelope forms around each set of chromosomes, and a nucleolus forms in each of the newly forming cells. |
Telophase a.) b.) Chromatin c.) nuclear |
|
During blank in animal cells, a blank pinches in and eventually separates the dividing cell into two cells. |
Cytokinesis Contractile ring |
|
In plant cells, a blank separates the dividing cell into two cells. |
cell plate |
|
Cell division in eukaryotes is controlled by blank called cyclins. |
proteins |
|
Blank may result if cells do not respond to control mechanisms and continue to divide nonstop. |
Cancer |
|
When the same type of cells normally divide to make a group of cells that perform the same function, they form a blank. |
TISSUE |
|
A group of tissues that work together form an blank. |
ORGAN |
|
A group of organs that work together form an blank. |
ORGAN SYSTEM |
|
All of the organ systems together form an blank. |
