Bee Chapter 11/Cell division

Process by which a cell divides into two new daughter cells.

• Cell cycle

• cell division

• sexual reproduction

• cell splitting

Process by which a single parent reproduces by itself.

• sexual reproduction

• binary reproduction

• asexual reproduction

• cell cycle

Type of reproduction in which cells from two parents unite to form the first cell of a new organism.

• binary fission

• asexual reproduction

• cell division

• sexual reproduction

A threadlike, gene-carrying structure found in the nucleus.

• nucleolus

• microfilament

• sister chromatids

• chromosomes

Substance found in eukaryotic chromosomes that consists of DNA tightly coiled around histones.

• daughter chromosomes

• chromatin

• centromere

• centrioles

Series of events that cells go through as they grow and divide.

• mitosis

• cytokinesis

• interphase

• cell cycle

The two main phases of the cell cycle are

• mitosis and cytokinesis

• G1 and G2

• Interphase and M phase

• prophase and metaphase

The 3 phases of interphase are

• Mphase, G1 and G2

• G1 ,S, and G2

• Prophase, Metaphase, and cytokinesis

• mitosis, cytokinesis, and S phase

The period of the cell cycle between cell divisions.

• M phase

• mitosis

• cytokinesis

• interphase

The division of the nucleus of a cell.

• mitosis

• metaphase

• cytokinesis

• nucleolus
