19
Q

Usable energy made during Cellular respiration is also known as ______

20
Q

Photosynthesis and Cellular respiration can be thought of as ________________ of each other.

21
Q

Photosynthesis and Cellular respiration make up the __________ and ____________ cycle.

A

Carbon and Oxygen Cycle

22
Q

How many stages are there of cell division?

23
Q

What are the three stages of cell division.

A

Interphase, Mitosis, Cytokinesis

24
Q

How many phases does Mitosis have?

25
What are the four stages of Mitosis
Mitosis Prophase, Mitosis Metaphase, Mitosis Anaphase, Mitosis Telophase.
26
What happens during Interphase.
The cell grows and prepares to divide. The DNA is copied/replicate/duplicated.
27
What stage is the longest stage in cell division?
Interphase - Stage 1
28
What stage produces two new daughter cells?
Cytokinesis - Stage 3
29
What happens in telophase?
TWO NEW NUCLEi are created and the cell begins to divide.
30
What happens in Anaphase?
Spindle fibers attach to the centromeres and the chromosomes PULL APART to opposites sides of the cell.
31
What happens in Prophase?
Nuclear membrane disappears and the Chromotids PAIR UP.
32
What happens in Metaphase?
Chromosomes line up in the MIDDLE of the cell.
33
Why would cells divide?
For repair, replacement and growth.
34
What is meiosis?
When sex cells (egg and sperm) divide.
35
What type of cells divide during Mitosis?
All body cells (not sex cells).
36
What is the female sex cell.
Egg - X
37
What is the male sex cell?
Sperm - can be X or Y
38
During what stage does DNA make a copy of itself?
Interphase - Stage 1.
39
What is the difference between Mitosis and Meiosis?
Mitosis divides body cells. Meiosis divides sex cells.
40
How many chromosomes are there in a human body cell?
46
41
How many pairs of chromosomes are there in a human body cell?
23
42
How many chromosomes come from mom and how many comes from dad?
23 and 23
