  1. 2. The double-stranded nucleic acid that stores genetic information; also known as deoxyribonucleic acid.
  2. 6. The repeating series of events that a cell goes through during its life, including growth, DNA replication, and cell division.
  3. 9. The coiled structure is made of DNA and protein that is present during cell division and visible with a light microscope.
  4. 10. What stage is it when you have two separate cells each half of the original DNA?
  5. 12. The multicellular, heterotrophic eukaryote with specialized cells that lack cell walls; member of the animal kingdom.

  1. 1. The cell that contains a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles.
  2. 3. What stage is where the cell gets the idea that it's time to divide?
  3. 4. What is diploid that forms when two haploid gametes unite during fertilization?
  4. 5. What is a phase in the cell cycle when DNA is replicated?
  5. 7. What is an abnormal mass of cells that may be cancerous?
  6. 8. The division of the nucleus in a eukaryotic cell, which occurs in four phases: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
  7. 11. The diploid cell that forms when two haploid gametes unite during fertilization. Answer.
  8. 14. The theory states that all living things are made up of cells, all life functions occur within cells, and all cells come from pre-existing cells.
  9. 15. Starting cell prior to cell division.
  10. 16. Type of cell division in which the number of chromosomes is reduced by half and four haploid cells are produced..
