FINAL JEOPARDY
Question 1
mitosis
Cells process that most cells go through at least
once in their lifetime.
Check Answer
Question 2
Smaller size allows necessary materials
to get where they’re needed.
Why are most cells microscopic?
Check Answer
Question 3
Chromosomes double, replicate; interphase
What happens to chromosomes before the start
of mitosis and name the phase it happens in.
Check Answer
Question 4
Prophase; chromosomes coil and start moving
to the center of the cell; attach to spindle fibers.
Name the 1st step of mitosis and describe what
happens to chromosomes?
Check Answer
Question 5
Metaphase, centromere
In which step of mitosis are the chromosomes
lined up in the center of the cell? What structure
allows them to attach?
Check Answer
Question 6
chromosomes
Most cells contain many of these in the
nucleus.
Check Answer
Question 7
Sister chromatids
Name the 2 strands of a chromosome
after the original is copied.
Check Answer
Question 8
cells
2 new _____ are formed in the 4th step.
Check Answer
Question 9
Centrioles, opposite sides of cell
In step 3, fibers pull the chromatids towards the
_____, but only in animal cells.
Check Answer
Question 10
Replaces cells, produces new cells
Name two benefits of mitosis.
Check Answer
Question
11
Insures all genetic material
(instructions) is in new cells.
What is the importance of mitosis as a means of cell
reproduction?
Check Answer
Question 12
Anaphase
Chromosomes are pulled to opposite sides of the
cell in this phase.
Check Answer
Question 13
Telophase
Nucleus reforms in this phase & the cell completes
its division.
Check Answer
Question 14
cytokinesis
Process that occurs to actually split the cytoplasmic
contents into two cells.
Check Answer
Question
15
Animal cells – pinch in two; plant
cells form cell plate
A difference between cytokinesis of plants and animals.
Check Answer
