Cell Reproduction Review

One cell divides 2 times to form 4 cells

meiosis

Formation of gametes in eukaryotic cells

meiosis

Zygote (fertilized egg) divides to form the trillion-celled baby.

mitosis

Daughter cells have the identical chromosomes as the parent cell

mitosis

Pairing up and crossing over between homologous chromosome pairs occurs at prophase

meiosis

Daughter cells are genetically different from each other and from the parent cell

meiosis

DNA replicates before cell division

both

One cell divides to form 2 identical cells

mitosis

Daughter cells have exactly � the number of chromosomes as the parent cell

meiosis

Cells in our body such as skin cells and bone cells divide by this process

mitosis

Homologous chromosomes end up in different cells

Meiosis

One division takes place

mitosis

Homologous Chromosomes are paired

Meiosis

Maintains the chromosome number of a species

both

Diploid cells are formed

mitosis

Haploid cells are formed

meiosis

Replicated chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell
