|
Telophase
|
in cell division (Mitosis) chromosomes begin to uncoil at opposite ends of the cell, a nuclear membrane forms around each mass of chromosomes
|
|
|
Asexual Reproduction
|
Reproduction with only one parent
|
|
|
Sexual Reproduction
|
reproduction where sex cells from two parents combine
|
|
|
Cytokinesis
|
the division of the cytoplasm where two whole cells are formed when the cell membrane pinches together(once the nucleus has divided)--in plant cells a cell wall is formed
|
|
|
Mitosis
|
the process in which a cell nucleus divides into two new nuclei, each of which contain the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell
|
|
|
Anaphase
|
in cell division (Mitosis) the double stranded chromosomes separate--at a region call the centromere. and pull to opposite sides of the cell
|
|
|
Chromosomes
|
strands of coiled DNA and protein in a cell's nucleus that carry the informantion (code) for the inherited characteristics of an organism
|
|
|
Interphase
|
the part of the cell cycle where the cell grows and chromosomes are duplicated
|
|
|
Prophase
|
a part of cell division (Mitosis) where chromosomes become visiable, spindle fibers begin to stretch across the cell (in animal cells centrioles appear)
|
|
|
Metaphase
|
in cell division (Mitosis)the doubled-stranded (copied) chromosomes line up around the center of the cell
