Ch. 3 Cells

 Just answers are fine.

 No more than 5 per station at a time.
 Do your own work.
 Check answers when finished.
 Get stamps for packet.
1. Before a cell divides, what phase is it in?

2. Explain what happens in this phase?

3. Draw a picture of this phase.

4. What are ALL of the phases in the cell cycle?

5. What are ALL of the phases in mitosis?

6. What phase is NOT a part of mitosis?

7. Define mitosis. How does this work in

humans?
8. What is the main difference between mitosis
in plants and mitosis in unicellular organisms?

9. However, mitosis in both (prokaryotes and

eukaryotes) produces ________ identical
daughter cells. (tell me how many)

10. In mitosis, are the parent cells different from

the daughter cells? Explain your answer.
11. What method of reproduction gives the most
diversity?

12. Copy chart and answer:

Asexual Reproduction Sexual Reproduction
_____ parent organism(s) _____ parent organism(s)

The offspring are genetically The offspring are genetically

__________ to the parents’ genes. __________ to the parents’ genes.

Reproduce _____________ (how fast) Reproduce _____________ (how fast)

Used by many _____-cellular Used by many _____-cellular

organisms. organisms.
13. What are three different types of asexual
reproduction?

14. Can you give an example of one organism for

each of the types?
15. Why don’t bacteria undergo mitosis?

What am I? Questions:

16. I am the genetic information in every cell?

17. For each species of organism, the pattern
and number of me is the same every time I am
formed. What am I?
18. Just like question 17, when you put two of
me together (connected by a centromere), my
name changes to ________________?
19. I am genetic information in “spaghetti”
form?

20. In eukaryotic cells, where is the DNA

contained?

21. Where can you find genetic material in

prokaryotic cells?
22. Which types of cells contain organelles?

23. What is it called when the cell cannot stop

dividing?

24. Please put the cell cycle in order:

 ____phase
 ____phase
 ____phase
 ____phase
 ____phase
  ____phase

25. Draw out these phases and explain one

major part in each drawing. In other words,
show me evidence of how you know what
phase it is in.
