Term
Cells divide due to either a _____ or because ______

Term
Chromosomes can take two forms:
___________ or _________.
________ are DNA spread out in thin, thread-like strings while _______ is DNA wound tightly
Definition
Chromosomes or chromatin.
Chromatin=thin
chromosomes=tightly wound
Term
Homologous pairs are the same size, shape, carry genes for _____, but not identical
Definition
the same trait
Term
The cell first goes through ________, and spends most of it's time in this stage. It is the "___-dividing stage". There are three stages of this process. The first stage is ___ or "growth", where the cell spreads out DNA as ______ & it gets bigger. The second step, _____ or synthesis, where ___ and ________ are copied. Stage three, ____ or growth, the cell grows larger and molecules needed for ________ are made.
Definition
Interphase
non-dividing
G1, Chromatin
S, DNA and chromosonal proteins
G2, cell division

half,
seperation
Term
In Meiosis 1, ___ new cells will be produced in a process almost identical to mitosis
Definition
two
Term
in prophase 1, ____ coils up into chromosomes and *homologous chromosomes pair to form a structure called a _____. THE BIG DIFFERENCE BETWEEN MITOSIS AND MEIOSIS IS THIS STEP. THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN DURING _______.
Definition
chromatin,
tetrad...MITOSIS
Term
In Metaphase 1, ____ line up along the _____ of the cell into homologous pairs
Definition
chromosomes,
MIDDLE
Term
During Anaephase 1, chromosomes _______
Definition

Definition
homologous chromosome pairs,
nuclear envelope reforms,
cytokinesis occurs,
haploid...replicated chromosomes
Term
Meiosis 2 begins without any _____ replication of the chromosome

Term
In Anaephase 2, the two ____ move to opposite poles of the cell, and because they are now seperated are referred to as ______
Definition
chromatids,
chromosomes
Term
During Telophase 2, the _________ reforms, and cytokinesis occurs creating ____ daughter cells, each with a ___ set of chromosomes. And because of ______, some chromosomes have recombined segments of the original parental chromosomes
Definition
nuclear envelope reforms,
