Cell Division Reproduction definitions
| # | Definition | Sets |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | meiosis | 5 sets |
| 2 | mitosis | 3 sets |
| 3 | asexual | 3 sets |
| 4 | what is meiosis? | 2 sets |
| 5 | asexual reproduction involves only one parent. all of the offspring are genetically identical to the parent. in single celled organisms, binary fission enables the parent cell to split its contents equally between the two new cells. prior to this division, the parent cell duplicates its dna and when the split takes place each new cell receives a complete exact copy of the dna, of the parent. in multi-cellular organisms the process that produces two new cells with the same number of chromosomes is called mitosis. | 2 sets |
| 6 | this occurs when unicellular organisms reproduce. | 1 set |
| 7 | results in genetically identical daughter cells. reproduction, grwoth and development, and tissue renewal | 1 set |
| 8 | cell division - occurs by binary fission (cell pinches in 2) - nothing equivalent to eukaryotic nuclear mitosis, meiosis, or cell-plate formation | 1 set |
| 9 | the larger a cell becomes, the more demands the cell places on its dna. in addition, a larger cell is less efficient in moving nutrients and waste materials across the cell membrane. food, water, and oxygen enter through cell membrane, waste leaves the same way. includes a cell dividing into 2 new daughter cells | 1 set |
| 10 | asexual. | 1 set |
| 11 | plays a profoundly important role in many biological processes | 1 set |
| 12 | what part of homeostasis is this? -cells need to grow and repair -one cell splits into two new cells that are genetically identical | 1 set |
| 13 | is part of the process of metabolism and causes the body to grow. | 1 set |
| 14 | structures inside a cell are copied then parent cell divides making 2 exact copies | 1 set |
| 15 | asexual and sexual | 1 set |
| 16 | older cells divide and create two new cells final step in life of cell chromosomes replicated nucleus and cytoplasm divide | 1 set |
| 17 | asexual and sexual reproduction the production of genetically identical offspring from a single parent is known as asexual reproduction. offspring produced by sexual reproduction inherit some of their genetic information from each parent. | 1 set |
| 18 | meiosis, mitosis | 1 set |
| 19 | asexual reproduction | 1 set |
| 20 | 3 ways that protists reproduce | 1 set |
| 21 | lag phase | 1 set |
| 22 | the process by which cells produce offspring cells | 1 set |
| 23 | asexual reproduction known as bionary fission | 1 set |
| 24 | used by some unicellular eukaryotes to make identical offspring | 1 set |
| 25 | meiosis and mitosis | 1 set |
| 26 | cell division = copies the original cell sexual reproduction = generates gametes for a new individual organism | 1 set |
| 27 | binary fission, budding, multiple fission | 1 set |
| 28 | the two "daughter" cells that result are genetically identical to each other and to the original "parent" cell | 1 set |
