Protects the nucleus and breaks down during
prophase – Nuclear membrane
Unspecified cells that are able to develop into many
different cell types – Stem Cells
Groups of similar types of cells that work together
to perform a particular job – Tissues
A cell without a membrane-bound nucleus –
Prokaryote
The basic unit of structure and function - Cells
A cell with a membrane-bound nucleus - Eukaryote
Groups of different organs that work together to
complete a series of tasks – Organ System
An individual form of life that has the ability to
function independently (ie. - plant, animal, bacteria)
– Organism
The process by which cells become different types
of cells – Cell Differentiation
Long, thin strands of DNA – Chromatin
Made up of only one cell – Unicellular
Made up of two or more cells – Multicellular
All cells in a multicellular organism come from this
one cell – Fertilized Egg/Zygote
The cycle of growth, development, and division that
most organisms go through – Cell Cycle
The stage where the cell grows, replicates its DNA,
and prepares to divide – Interphase
Groups of different tissues working together to
perform a particular job – Organs
The structure that sister chromatids are held together
by – Centromere
The 2 new cells that result from mitosis and
cytokinesis – Daughter cells
The stage where the nucleus and its contents divide
– Mitosis
The stage where the cytoplasm and its contents
divide – Cytokinesis
Tightly coiled DNA (rod shaped) – Chromatid
Phase where sister chromatids separate and cell
elongates – Anaphase
Phase where DNA condenses into chromosomes &
the nuclear membrane breaks down - Prophase
Phase where the chromosomes line up in the center
of the cell – Metaphase
Phase where 2 identical nuclei form – Telophase
A pair of sister chromatids – Duplicated
Chromosomes
These “little organs” are found inside the cell –
Organelles
A type of reproduction involving one parent
organism – Asexual Reproduction
These help in cell division and move to opposite
ends of the cell during prophase – Centrioles
These attach to the chromosomes and pull them
apart during anaphase - Spindle Fibers
The original cell that is the source of other cells –
Parent Cell
The genetic material found inside the nucleus DNA
