Reproduction
Across
- 6. Organized DNA in the nucleus
- 11. Unorganized DNA in the nucleus
- 12. type of asexual reproduction; an organism can repair a damaged body part or regrow a limb
- 13. The phase where spindle fibers pull the chromatids apart toward opposite sides of the cell
- 15. The phase where the nuclear membrane dissolves, chromosomes condense, and centrioles move to opposite sides of the cell
- 16. Sister chromatids attach at the center at a part called the _________.
- 18. All cells in the body except sex cells are _________.
- 19. Creates sex (reproductive) cells
- 21. Organelles found near the nucleus that assist during mitosis, found only in animal cells
- 22. Stage Two of the cell cycle, takes place in eukaryotes, two new nuclei are formed; each new nuclei has the same number of chromosomes
Down
- 1. Indentation in the middle of the cell that appears during telophase
- 2. From the centrioles, attach to the centromere of chromatids and pull the chromatids apart
- 3. Exact copies of chromosomes
- 4. The phase where the cell grows and prepares for division, organelles and chromosomes are copied and chromatids form and join at the centromere
- 5. A type of asexual reproduction in which a new organism develops from an outgrowth or bud due to cell division at one particular site
- 7. The phase where chromosomes line up along the middle of the cell and spindle fibers from the centrioles attach to the centromere of the chromatids
- 8. The stage where the cell membrane pinches in and the cytoplasm is evenly divided forming two separate cells
- 9. The process that occurs in prokaryotes such as bacteria when they split into two new cells
- 10. The phase where the nuclear membrane forms around each set of chromosomes and in animal cells a cleavage furrow appears and begins to divide the cell into two new cells
- 14. Pairs of chromosomes with the same sequence of genes and structure
- 17. The life cycle of a cell
- 20. The build up of cell wall pieces in the middle of plant cells during cell division.
