Biology Chapter 5
what is the main difference between binary fission and mitosis?
Binary fission occurs in single-celled organism only
what completes the cell cycle?
Cytokinesis
how do starfish reproduce?
Fragmentation
what are 2 internal factors that are important in advancing the cell cycle
Kinases and cyclins
In which stage of the cell cycle to the nucleus and its contents divide
Mitosis
Budding
a bud grows from the side of the body and come sometimes grow to a size that can exist independently if separated
vegetative reproduction
a form of asexual reproduction of a plant
what process do eukaryotes that reproduce asexually use?
binary fission
3 types of eukaryotic asexual reproduction
budding,fragmentation,vegetative reproduction
proteins that bind to cells and stimulate cell division are called.....
growth factors
in what 2 ways can reproduction occur?
sexual reproduction and asexual reproduction
Fragmentation
splitting into pieces
Reproduction
the action or process of making a copy of something
binary fission
the asexual reproduction of a single-celled organism by division into 2 roughly equal parts
asexual reproduction
the creation of offspring from a single parent and does not involve the joining of gametes
what limits the maximum size of a cell ?
the ratio of cell surface area to volume
how are binary fission and mitosis alike?
they both have similar results
totipotent
type of stem cell that can grow into any other cell type
can eukaryotes reproduce asexually?
yes
during which phase of mitosis do sister chromatids separate from each other?
Anaphase
