4. Cell Cycle: Draw the stage and list the steps of the stage beside the picture shown
a. Interphase:
1. DNA duplicates

d. Anaphase:
1. chromatids separate to the
sides of the cell; cytokinesis
begins
b. Prophase:
e. Telophase:
1. nuclear envelope disappears
2. ______________________
3. ______________________
c. Metaphase:
1. spindle fibers align or move
chromosomes to the middle
or equator of the cell
1. nuclear envelope reforms

6. Draw the picture of Meiosis on p.176 above, complete the chart that compares the two
processes.
Mitosis
1. makes diploid cells
2.
3. happens throughout life
4.
Meiosis
makes genetically unique or different cells
involved in sexual reproduction
7. Meiosis Matching:
_____ means sex cell (sperm and eggs)
_____ number of chromosomes in a typical human body (somatic) cell
_____ pair of chromosomes; inherit one from each parent; carry the
same genes but the genes may code for different traits
_____ phase of meiosis where homologous chromosomes separate
_____ phase of meiosis where sister chromatids separate
_____ has XX for sex chromosomes
_____ cell that contains two copies of each chromosome (2n)- body cells
_____ cell that contains only one copy of each chromosome (n) – sex cells
_____ the phase in meiosis that leads to genetic variation in offspring
_____ chromosomes 1 through 22; contain genes not related to sex
a. autosomes
b. diploid cells
c. female
d. male
e. metaphase I
f. anaphase I
g. anaphase II
h. gametes
i. 23
j. 46
k. homologous chromosomes
l. haploid cells
