| A | B |
| sexual reproduction | produces offspring that have a combination of genetic material from two parents |
| asexual reproduction | when offspring is produced by only one parent |
| interphase | part of cell cycle that occurs between divisions |
| replication | occurs when material makes a copy of itself |
| chromatin | a thin fibrous form of DNA and proteins that make up a protein |
| sister chromatids | two identical structures resulting from chromosome replication |
| centromere | place where sister chromatids are joined together |
| mitosis | the process during which a cell's nucleus divides into two identical nuclei |
| cytokinesis | the process in which a cell's cytoplasm divides to make two daughter cells |
| prophase | chromosomes condense and nuclear membrane disappears |
| metaphase | chromosomes line up in center of cell |
| anaphase | centromeres divide as spindle fibers pull chromatids towards poles |
| telophase | two new identical nuclei are formed |
| diploid | 2n number of chromosomes |
