What is diffusion?
The movement of particles from regions of higher density to region of lower density.
At which step of the cell cycle does the Cytoplasm divides and a cell plate forms on the bottom of the cell ?
Cytokinesis
At which step of the cell cycle does the chromosomes become homologous chromosomes?
Metaphase
Active transport is the movement of substances from areas of ___ density to areas of ___ density; this (does; doesn’t ) require the use of ATP energy
Low to high
does
Passive transport is the movement of substances from areas of ___ density to areas of ___ density; this (does; doesn’t ) require the use of ATP energy
high to low
doesn’t
what is the difference between animal and plant cell divison?
the plant cells forms a cell plate during cytokinesis
Osmosis and diffusion is an example of what?
Passive transport
What are the 3 stages of the cell cycle?
interphase
mitosis
cytokinesis
What are the 6 steps of the cell cycle?
Interphase Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase Cytokinesis
What are the 4 phases of mitosis?
Prophase
Metaphase
Anaphase
Telophase
How do prokaryotic cells reproduce?
through binary fission
How do Eukaryotic cells reproduce?
Through the cell cycle
How does a large particle get in a cell?
Endocytosis: the cell surrounds the particle until it becomes a part of the cell
How does a large particle get out of a cell?
Exocytosis: the cell pushes the particle to the cell membrane and shoots it out
what is the difference between a prokaryotic and a eukaryotic cell?
a nucleus is in the eukaryotic cell.
