Ch. 10 cellular reproduction Flashcards
As a cell becomes larger ____________ increases faster than the surface area
the volume
The larger a cell becomes there is greater demand on the ______.
DNA
If a cell becomes too large the cell membrane ____________ or bring in enough materials like food.
cannot get rid of wastes
____________ solves the problem of getting too big because the cell divides into 2 daughter cells.
Cell division
The cell copies all DNA so each daughter cell has the ______________ of original DNA.
exact same amount
The cell ___________ solving the surface are and volume problem.
splits in half
______________ provides genetic diversity for the continuation of a species.
Sexual reproduction
The offspring is genetically identical to the single parent
Asexual reproduction
In asexual reproduction there is no exchange of _______________ so no genetic diversity.
DNA information
Sexual reproduction provides ____________ for the continuation of a species.
genetic diversity
Asexual is reproduction without the ___________________________.
fusion of reproductive cells
________________ use binary fission.
Prokaryotes
The 3 phases of interphase:
Growth 1: cell growth
Synthase: dna replication
Growth 2: preparation
Growth 1 phase:
Cells increase in size
Centrioles are duplicated
Intense growth and activity
Synthesis Phase:
new DNA is synthesized when the chromosomes replicate
