Cell Division Answer Key Vocabulary: cell division, centriole, centromere, chromatid, chromatin, chromosome, cytokinesis, DNA, interphase, mitosis Prior Knowledge Questions (Do these B EFORE using the Gizmo.) 1. Cells reproduce by splitting in half, a process called cell division. What do cells need to do between divisions to make sure that they don’t just get smaller and smaller? 2. The genetic information of a cell is carried in its DNA (short for deoxyribonucleic acid). What do cells need t...

2. Analyze: Look closely at the graph. A. About how long did it take to grow the first 20 cells? About 25-30 hours B. About how long did it take to grow the last 20 cells? About 2-4 hours C. Would you say the rate of cell growth is increasing or decreasing? Explain. The rate of cell growth is increasing. It took a long time to grow the first 20 cells, but not very long to grow the last 20 cells. 3. Extend your thinking: In living organisms, the cell cycle is closely regulated. What do you ...
