| A | B |
| mitosis | cell division producing 2 identical diploid cells |
| diploid number | the species number of chromosomes found in body cells (2 copies) |
| chromosomes | made of DNA; replicate for mitosis |
| chromatid | arm of a chromosome |
| centromere | holds chromatids together |
| centriole | helps to form spindle fibers |
| spindle fibers | attach to centromeres and move chromosomes |
| interphase | chromosomes duplicate |
| prophase | nuclear membrane disintegrates and chromosomes visible |
| metaphase | spindle fibers move chromosomes along center of cell |
| anaphase | single-stranded chromosomes pulled part |
| telophase | 2 nuclei are formed |
| daughter cells | 2 identical cells that form at the end of cell division |
| budding | cytoplasmic division unequal |
| binary fission | cyroplasmic division equal |
| sporulation | spores released by fungi |
| regeneration | animals regrow lost body parts |
| vegetative propagation | plants grow from roots, stems, or leaves |
| undifferentiated | cells in invertebrates without functions; help to regenerate lost parts |
