1. Mitosis & Meiosis Review
Two Cell Division Processes

2. What is Mitosis?

3. The cell division process of making body cells.

4. What is Meiosis?

5. The cell division process of making sex cells.

6. When does Interphase occur?

7. Interphase happens BEFORE Mitosis or Meiosis
Interphase happens BEFORE Mitosis or Meiosis. Most of a cells’ life is spent in interphase.

8. What happens during Interphase?

9. The cell doubles in size
DNA is copied

10. What are the steps of Mitosis in order?

11. Prophase
Metaphase
Anaphase
Telophase

12. What happens during Prophase?

13. The nuclear membrane disappears
Chromosomes wind up.

14. What happens during Metaphase?

15. The chromosomes line up along the equator (middle) of the cell.

16. What happens during Anaphase?

17. Chromosomes are pulled apart so one copy goes to each side of the cell.

18. What happens during Telophase?

19. Nuclear membranes form around each set of chromosomes
Chromosomes unwind

20. What happens during Cytokinesis?

21. The cell splits into two cells.

22. What is made by Mitosis?

23. Two cells, which are identical to each other and the parent cell.
Body Cells.

24. What is made by Meiosis?

25. Four cells with half the DNA of the parent cell.
Sex Cells.

26. How are Mitosis and Meiosis similar?

27. They make more cells
They go through Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase at least once.

28. How are Mitosis and Meiosis different?

29. Mitosis makes 2 cells
Meiosis makes 4 cells
Meiosis goes through each phase twice.

30. What is Binary Fission?

31. The process by which prokaryotes make more of themselves when one cell divides into two identical cells.

32. If a body cell has 20 chromosomes, how many will be in the sex cell?

33. 10 Chromosomes (half).
