cell replication
Meiosis
Mitosis
Creates gametes/sex cells
Interphase
Cytokinesis
Creates somatic cells (body cells)
goes through cycle twice #
goes through cycle once
prophase
metaphase
anaphase
telophase
problems in copying of DNA can lead to cancer
problems in copying of DNA can lead to birth defects
Cell replication and division
nucleus duplication
Phase of cell cycle when identical copies of DNA are made
cytoplasmic division of cell
Phase of mitosis when sister chromatids pair up, phase of meiosis when homologous chromosomes pair up
Phase of mitosis when sister chromatids line up in the middle, phase of meiosis when homologous chromosomes line up in the middle
Phase of mitosis when sister chromatids pull apart, phase of meiosis when homologous chromosomes pull apart
Two nuclei are formed
longest phase
shortest phase
when the copying slows down=aging
asexual reproduction
sexual reproduction
