A | B |
mitosis | cell division producing 2 identical diploid cells |
somatic tissue | body tissue; tissue other than gametes |
chromosomes | DNA plus protein; has X-shape when cell division begins divion begins |
chromatin | chromosomes without a definite shape; found during interphase |
chromatid | arm of a chromosome |
centromere | holds chromatids together |
centriole | forms spindle fibers used to manipulatye the chromosomnes around the cell during cell division |
spindle fibers | "threads"of protein which attach to centromeres and move chromosomes during the stages of mitosis |
interphase | cell not dividing; period of metabolic activity and growth in cell |
prophase | nuclear membrane disintegrates and chromosomes visible |
metaphase | spindle fibers move chromosomes in a lineat the center of cell with a chromatid on either side of the equator |
anaphase | chromatids pulled apart to the poles or ends of the cells |
telophase | furrow forms to split cell/ in plant cells a cell wall plate forms |
furrow | ridge which form around the cell to split it into w cells |
daughter cells | 2 identical cells that form at the end of cell division |
cell cycle | life span of the cell, Interphase; Mitosis, Cytokenesis |
glucose | sugar |
ATP | form of energy used by cells |
sunlight | energy source for photosynthesis |
product of ferementation | latic acid or alcohol and small amount of energy |
