Front

What is DNA wrapped around during chromosome formation?

Back

Histones (proteins)

Front

What occurs after the G1 phase?

Back

The cell begins to copy its DNA (Synthesis)

Front

Which is a reactant of photosynthesis?

Back

Carbon dioxide

Front

In which phase does the cytoplasm divide?

Cytokinesis

Front

The name of the process in which sugars are broken down without using oxygen is called:

Back

Anaerobic/Fermentation

Front

What is the main purpose of photosynthesis?

Back

To convert light energy into chemical energy (glucose) using carbon dioxide and water.

Front

What is the end product of cellular respiration?

Back

ATP (adenosine triphosphate), carbon dioxide, and water.

Front

What is the difference between mitosis and meiosis?

Back

Mitosis results in two identical daughter cells, while meiosis results in four genetically diverse gametes.

Front

What phase of the cell cycle is characterized by cell growth and preparation for DNA replication?

Back

G1 phase (Gap 1 phase).

Front

What is the role of chlorophyll in photosynthesis?

Back

Chlorophyll absorbs light energy, primarily from the sun, to drive the photosynthesis process.
