BIOLOGY REPRODUCTION

Question 1

Asexual reproduction

Answer 1

Cloning reproduction

Question 2

Sexual reproduction

Answer 2

Male and female mate

Question 3

Cell cycle

Answer 3

Series of events cells go through as they grow and divide

Question 4

Diploid

Answer 4

2 complete sets of chromosomes in an organism’s cell, which each parent contributes to a chromosome to each pair

Question 5

Haploid

Answer 5

Presence of a single set of chromosomes in an organism’s cell

Question 6

Gametes

Answer 6

Reproductive cell of animal or plant

Question 7

Interphase

Answer 7

Stage of cell cycle that occurs before mitosis

Question 8

Mitosis

Answer 8

Process which cells divide

Question 9

4 stages of mitosis

Answer 9

Prophase
Metaphase
Anaphase
Telophase

Question 10

Prophase

Answer 10

Chromosomes become visible as tightly coiled threadlike structures

Question 11

Metaphase

Answer 11

Individual chromosomes are spread out in the cell nucleus. Nucleus dissolve and cell chromosomes condense and move together

Question 12

Anaphase

Answer 12

Chromosomes move from center towards opposite ends of a dividing cell

Question 13

Telophase

Answer 13

Chromosomes move in opposite directions so 2 new cells can be formed

Question 14

Chromosome / Chromatin

Answer 14

Structure found inside the nucleus of a cell

Question 15

Sister chromatids

Answer 15

Duplicated copies of a single chromosome that are attached to each other and are identical

Question 16

Centromere

Answer 16

Structure in a chromosome that holds together the 2 chromatids

Question 17

Centrioles

Answer 17

Paired barrel-shaped organelles located in the cytoplasm of animal cells near nuclear envelope

Question 18

Spindle fibers

Answer 18

Network of filaments that are formed during cell division process

Question 19

Apoptosis

Answer 19

Type of cell death which series of molecular steps lead to its death
