1. DNA: (Pg. 74)
The genetic material found in all living cells that contains the
information needed for an organism to grow, maintain itself,
and reproduce
2. Chromosome: (Pg. 75)
The physical structure in a cell that contains the cell’s genetic
material
3-2: Cell Division is part of the cell cycle.
Pg. 80-87
Date: _____________
1. Cell Cycle: (Pg. 80)
The normal sequence of growth, maintenance, and division in a
cell
2. Interphase: (Pg. 81)
The period in the cell cycle in which a cell grows, maintains itself,
and prepares for division
3. Mitosis: (Pg. 81)
The phase in the cell cycle during which the nucleus divides
4. Cytokenisis: (Pg. 81)
The division of a parent cell’s cytoplasm following mitosis
3-3: Both sexual and asexual reproduction involve cell division
Pg. 88-93
Date: _____________
1. Asexual Reproduction: (Pg. 88)
The process by which a single organism produces offspring
that have the same genetic material
2. Binary Fission: (Pg. 89)
A form of asexual reproduction by which some single-celled
organisms reproduce; the genetic material is copied and one
cell divides into two independent cells that are that are each a
copy of the original cell
3. Regeneration: (Pg. 90)
In some organisms, the process by which certain cells produce
new tissue growth at the site of a wound or list limb; also a
form of asexual reproduction
