Question

cell division

the human body consists of two types of cells, _______ and _____. this lesson looks at the cell division of somatic cells, which is called _______.

the cell cycle

during the cell cycle, a parent cell _______, prepares for _____ and then _____ to form two _____ _______, each with dna from the parent cell. each daughter cell becomes a parent cell and begins the cycle again. this cell cycle has three phases, each of which is its own unique event: (be sure to include these definitions in your glossary)

interphase—the cell grows and prepares to divide
mitosis—the nucleus divides
cytokinesis—the cell divides into two daughter cells, called cytoplasmic division.

Explanation:

Identificar tipos de células humanas

Using the Somatic Cells knowledge point
El cuerpo humano está compuesto principalmente por dos tipos generales de células: las células somáticas (células corporales no reproductivas) y las células germinales o sexuales (gametos, como óvulos y espermatozoides).

Definir la división de células somáticas

Using the Cell Cycle knowledge point
La división celular de las células somáticas, que da como resultado dos células hijas genéticamente idénticas, se conoce específicamente como mitosis.

Analizar el proceso del ciclo celular

El ciclo celular describe cómo una célula madre crece, se prepara para la división duplicando su material genético y luego se divide.

• Una célula madre crece (grows), se prepara para la división (division) y luego se divide (divides) para formar dos células hijas (daughter cells).
• Cada célula hija contiene una copia idéntica del ADN de la célula madre original.

Answer:

Question 1

The human body consists of two types of cells, <blank>somatic cells</blank> and <blank>germ cells</blank>. This lesson looks at the cell division of somatic cells, which is called <blank>mitosis</blank>.

Question 2

During the cell cycle, a parent cell <blank>grows</blank>, prepares for <blank>division</blank> and then <blank>divides</blank> to form two <blank>daughter cells</blank>, each with DNA from the parent cell.
