- 4. During this phase of mitosis, new nuclear membranes are formed and the cell begins to pinch in the middle to form 2 new daughter cells.
- 5. In meisosi, onc ell with the full number of chromosomes becomes this number of cells.
- 6. during this stage of meiosis II, the spindle fibers attach to the chromatids and they line up at the equator.
- 8. Metaphase in meiosis is exactly the same as in mitosis except that entire chromosomes attach to one pole or the other with the _____ chromatids still attached.
- 10. During this, homologous chromosomes (one from the father and one from the mother) join.
- 11. The point at which sister chromatids are attached to each other.
- 12. During this stage of meiosis II, new spindles form at the poles.
- 16. During this stage of meiosis, chromosomes separate adn gather at seperate poles.
- 17. The first phase of mitosis during which the x shaped chromatids condense into rodlike structures and the cell membrane disappears.
- 18. Members of a chromosome pair are called _____ chromosomes.
- 21. In meiosis, the nubmer of chromosomes found in each gamete is reduced to ____ of the original number.
- 22. The cell division process in which new somatic cells are formed.
- 24. During this stage of meiosis, the spindles are completed and extend to teh poles and the chromosomes all line up at the equator.
- 26. The final stage of cell division where two new daughter cells are formed.
- 27. Another name for somatic cells.
- 28. During this stage of meiosis, a membrane divides two new nuclei creating two cells with half the chromosomes.
- 30. A cell that has the full number of chromosomes for that organism.
Down
- 1. During this phase of mitosis, the spindle fibers pull the chromatids apart to opposite ends of the cell.
- 2. The structures found in the nuclei of cells that carry most of a cell's genes.
- 3. The second phase of mitosis during which the chromosomes line up at the center of the cell and are attached to spindle fibers.
- 7. In meiosis, cells that produce eggs and sperm divide ____ in succession.
- 9. The phase during which a cell grows and its nucleus produces a copy of each chromosome.
- 12. Four chromatids are attached together during this phase of meiosis.
- 13. During this phase of meiosis II, the sister chromatids move to opposite poles.
- 14. During this phase of meiosis II, the nuclear membrane forms around the chromosomes.
- 15. One of the two identical strands of a replicated chromosome.
- 19. The reporductive cells that divide to make new cells.
- 20. Crossing- over is a way that genese of a mother and a father are mixed so that the offspring is a combinatino of traits in both parents producing more of this.
- 23. In meiosis, the new cells have half the usual number of these.
- 25. The cell division process in which new gamete cells are formed.
- 29. If gamets were made by mitosis, the number of chromosomes in offspring would keep______.
- 31. The mixture of DNA and protein that makes up a chromosome.
