1. Biology 3201 Cellular Reproduction Assignment
By: Richard Walsh

2. What is the Purpose of this assignment?
The Purpose of this assignment is to educate you on some very important terms that deal with cell reproduction.
These terms include:
Anaphase
Centromere
Chromatin
Chromosomes
Cytokenisis
Daughter Cell
Cell Cycle

3. What Exactly is Anaphase?
Anaphase- A late stage of cell division during which the Centromere spits apart and chromosomes move to the poles of the spindle.
< Anaphase occurring in a cell.

4. What is a Centromere?
Centromere – The point at which two parts (sister Chromatids) of a chromosome join and at which the spindle fibers are attached during mitosis. Also called kinetochore.
Centromere >

5. What is Chromatin?
Chromatin - A complex of nucleic acids and proteins, primarily histones, in the cell nucleus that stains readily with basic dyes and condenses to form chromosomes during cell division.
Chromatin >

6. What are Chromosomes?
Chromosomes - A threadlike linear strand of DNA and associated proteins in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells that carries the genes and functions in the transmission of hereditary information.
^Chromosomes as they occur in the human body.

7. What does the process of Cytokenisis mean?
Cytokenisis - Organic process consisting of the division of the cytoplasm of a cell following karyokinesis bringing about the separation into two daughter cells.

8. What is a Daughter Cell?
Daughter Cell - Either the two cells produced during mitosis of the parent cell.
Daughter cells which formed during mitosis >

9. What is a Cell Cycle?
Cell Cycle - The series of biochemical and structural events involving the growth, replication, and division of a eukaryotic cell.
