ATI Science- Cell Cycle/ Mitosis- Meiosis

Question 1

Cell division process that produces two daughter cells identical to parent cell

Answer 1

Mitosis

Question 2

Cell division process that produces 4 daughter cell/ haploid cells- with different genetic coding than the parent cell

Answer 2

Meiosis

Question 3

Phases in both Mitosis & Meiosis

Answer 3

Interphase, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase, Cytokinesis

Question 4

How many times do these phases happen in Meiosis?

Answer 4

Two

Question 5

process where cell reproduces, grows, duplicates genetic material, and cell division

Answer 5

cell cycle

Question 6

3 stages of Interphase

Answer 6

Gap 1/ G1 , Synthesis/S, Gap 2/G2

Question 7

4 Stages of Mitosis (Pee on a MAT)

Answer 7

Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase

Question 8

What are the phases of the cell cycle?

Answer 8

Interphase & Mitosis

Question 9

Purpose of interphase?

Answer 9

Prepares cell for mitosis/meiosis. Allows cell to grow & perform its function

Question 10

Process that ensures gametes contain the correct # of chromosomes & genetic diversity

Answer 10

Meiosis

Question 11

How can cells reproduce?

Answer 11

Via mitosis and meiosis

Question 12

Cells replicate through

Answer 12

mitosis

Question 13

Meiosis takes place in what kind of cells?

Answer 13

Reproductive cells/ gametes

Question 14

cell that results from the union of an egg gamete and sperm gamete

Answer 14

zygote

Question 15

Kind of cells that contain half of genetic material from parent cell

Answer 15

haploid

Question 16

chromosome pairs, one from each parent, that are similar in length/ gene position

Answer 16

homologous chromosomes
