8196922050	asexual reproduction	a type of reproduction that is similar to cloning, all organisms have identical DNA	4
8196922051	meiosis	cell division process that occurs to produce gametes, results in four different haploid cells	5
8196922052	different	in meiosis, the DNA in each of the gametes is __________________	6
8196922053	sperm	the type of gamete found in males	7
8196922054	eggs	the type of gamete found in females	8
8196922055	ovaries	meiosis occurs in this organ in females	9
8196922056	testes	meiosis occurs in this organ in males	10
8196922057	prophase I	the phase in meiosis where the chromatin condenses into chromosomes and forms homologous pairs.	11
8196922058	prophase I	the phase in meiosis where crossing over occurs	12
8196922059	crossing over	the exchange of genetic material between non sister chromatids of homologous chromosomes	13
8196922060	non sister chromatids	crossing over occurs between these	14
8196922061	metaphase I	the phase in meiosis where homologous chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell	15
8196922062	independent assortment	the phenomenon where homologous chromosomes align along the metaphase plate independently of one another	16
8196922063	anaphase I	the phase in meiosis where homologous chromosomes are pulled to opposite sides	17
8196922064	telophase I	the phase in meiosis where two new haploid nuclei are formed	18
8196922065	metaphase I	the phase in meiosis where independent assortment occurs	19
8196922066	diploid	two sets of chromosomes	20
8196922067	haploid	one set of chromosomes	21
8196922068	prophase II	the phase in meiosis were the chromatin condenses into chromosomes	22
8196922069	metaphase II	the phase in meiosis where the chromosomes line up in the center of the cell	23
8196922070	anaphase II	the phase in meiosis where the chromosomes are split into chromatids	24
8196922071	telophase II	the phase in meiosis where two new nuclei are formed, resulting in four haploid cells	25
8196922072	s phase	the phase of interphase where the DNA is duplicated	26
8196922073	g1 phase	the phase of interphase where the cell grows	27
8196922074	g2 phase	the phase of interphase where the cell continues to grow and correct errors in DNA replication	28
8196922075	zygote	a fertilized egg, it is diploid	29
8196922076	budding	a type of asexual reproduction performed in yeast where a new identical organism buds off an anatomical point of the original organism	30
8196922077	fertilization	the joining of an egg and a sperm	31
8196922080	nondisjunction	occurs in anaphase 1, when a homologous chromosome fails to separate, or in anaphse 2, when a chromosome fails to separate	32
8196922081	down syndrome	trisomy 21, a child is born with mental retardation and elfish features	33
