  1. 4. Stage of mitosis where the chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell
  2. 6. The process of two cells splitting in half and producing two identical cells
  3. 7. The form of cell division that creates gametes
  4. 10. Also known as DNA, it is the carrier of genetic information
  5. 11. a rigid structure that is found on the outside of plant cells
  6. 13. the building block of life that allows us to carry out our normal functions
  7. 14. A long strand of DNA that contains many genes
  8. 16. A process that a cell undergoes that is usually split into three parts: cell growth, DNA replication and growth and preparation for division
  9. 21. Fibre Group of microtubules that moves chromosomes during mitosis or meiosis
  10. 23. A structure found within a cell that carry out specialised functions
  11. 24. A different form of a gene is known as an ________
  12. 26. Cells that contain a membrane bound nucleus and organelles
  13. 27. responsible for the translation of RNA
  14. 28. A molecule manufactured within ribosomes that is very important for cellular activity
  15. 29. holds DNA and controls the activity of the cell

  1. 1. A species'/organism's complete set of genetic information
  2. 2. What two chromatids are held together by
  3. 3. Cells that reproduce by meiosis
  4. 5. Cells that reproduce by mitosis
  5. 8. cylindrical shaped organelles that assist in cell division
  6. 9. Cells such as bacteria that don't have a membrane bound nucleus
  7. 12. When all body cells contain 46 chromosomes
  8. 15. Cells that contain 23 chromosomes
  9. 17. The stage where spindle fibres are disassembled, nuclear membranes reform and chromosomes uncoil into chromatids.
  10. 18. lots are found within DNA and are responsible for coding different proteins
  11. 19. A visual representation of all the chromosomes found in an organism
  12. 20. Controlled cell death
  13. 22. A reproductive cell that contains a group of haploid chromosomes
  14. 25. First stage of mitosis. Centrioles start to produce spindle fibres, the nuclear membrane breaks apart and chromosomes are fully formed.
