  3. 7. type of cells that complete mitosis
  4. 11. type of reproduction that involves only one parent cell
  5. 12. when homologous chromosomes exchange DNA during prophase of MEIOSIS; creates variation
  6. 15. the act of making an exact copy of the DNA strand during the S phase of interphase
  7. 16. having only one of each chromosome (half of the pair)
  8. 18. having two of each chromosome
  9. 19. number of cells created at the end of mitosis
  10. 21. number of rounds of cell division in meiosis
  11. 22. number of cells created at the end of meiosis
  12. 23. number of rounds of cell division in mitosis

Down
  1. 1. involves dividing up the contents of the nucleus so that new cells will have identical DNA
  2. 2. the idea that pairs of chromosomes randomly line up during metaphase of MEIOSIS
  3. 3. production of egg and sperm cells
  4. 5. phase of the cell cycle when the cell is doing all things necessary in preparation for cell division
  5. 8. the segment of interphase where DNA is doubled
  6. 9. the two halves of a doubled chromosome
  7. 10. number of chromosomes at the end of meiosis compared to the parent cell
  8. 13. When chromosomes do not separate properly during metaphase; results in an extra or missing chromosome
