AP Biology Exam Review Study Guide
with Complete Solutions


mitosis - Answer✔️✔️-part of eukaryotic cell division during which the cell nucleus divides


cytokinesis - Answer✔️✔️-division of the cytoplasm during cell division

chromatids - Answer✔️✔️-one of the two identical "sister" parts of a duplicated

chromosome

centromeres - Answer✔️✔️-area where the chromatids of a chromosome are attached

interphase - Answer✔️✔️-period of the cell cycle between cell division

cell cycle - Answer✔️✔️-series of events that cells go through as they grow and divide

prophase - Answer✔️✔️-first and longest phase of mitosis, during which the

chromosomes become visible and the centrioles separate and take up positions on the

cell's DNA

centrioles - Answer✔️✔️-one of the two tiny structures located in the cytoplasm of animal

cels near the nuclear envelope

spindle - Answer✔️✔️-fanlike microtubule structure that helps separate the chromosomes

during mitosis

metaphase - Answer✔️✔️-second phase of mitosis, during which the chromosomes line

up across the center of the cell

anaphase - Answer✔️✔️-the third phase of mitosis, during which the chromosome pairs

separate and move toward opposite poles

telophase - Answer✔️✔️-fourth and final phase of mitosis, during which the

chromosomes begin to disperse into a tangle of dense material

in eukaryotic cells

cancer - Answer✔️✔️-disorder in which some of the body's own cells lose the ability to

control growth

genetics - Answer✔️✔️-scientific study of heredity

fertilization - Answer✔️✔️-process in sexual reproduction in which male and female

reproductive cells join to form a new cell

from a genetic cross

homozygous - Answer✔️✔️-term used to refer to an organism that has two identical

alleles for a particular trait

heterozygous - Answer✔️✔️-term used to refer to an organism that has two different

alleles for the same trait

phenotype - Answer✔️✔️-physical characteristics of an organism

genotype - Answer✔️✔️-genetic makeup of an organism

independent assortment - Answer✔️✔️-independent segregation of genes during the

formation of gametes

incomplete dominance - Answer✔️✔️-situation in which one allele is not completely

dominant over another

codominance - Answer✔️✔️-situation in which both alleles of a gene contribute to the

phenotype of the organism

multiple alleles - Answer✔️✔️-three or more alleles of the same gene

polygenic traits - Answer✔️✔️-trait controlled by two or more genes

homologous - Answer✔️✔️-term used to refer to chromosomes that each have a

corresponding chromosome from the opposite-sex parent

diploid - Answer✔️✔️-term used to refer to a cell that contains both sets of homologous

chromosomes
