Chapter 2 Test Review Importance of Cell Division Cell division allows organisms to reproduce‚ to grow‚ and to repair damage. Osmosis- the movement of a fluid‚ usually water‚ across a membrane toward an area of high solute concentration. Diffusion- a transport mechanism for moving chemicals into and out of the cell‚ from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. Active transport- requires chemical energy Passive transport- requires no energy because the molecules move

Normal cell division meiosis and gamete production via meiosis. Explain why the process of mitosis and meiosis are both important to a living organism. When would an organism need to undergo the process of mitosis? Meiosis? What would happen if meiosis did not occur? Mitosis is the cell process of growth and division whereas meiosis is the process of developing reproductive cells. The sperm and egg are critical components for almost all living organisms. Every living organism begins with one

observations are repressentative of cell division taking place in the oinon root tip. Firstly‚ this is because our numbers of the number of cells in each phase of mitosis are similar to the rest of the groups‚ so we can assume our results are most likely correct. We can also assume our calculations are right because we know that Interphase is the most active phase in the process of cell divison‚ which would agree with our calculations since we assume that approxiamtly 93% of cells are going though Interphase

Abstract: The question of the investigation is if lectin can induce mitosis in the cell of an onion root tip. The hypothesis is that‚ if the lectin does not induce mitosis‚ then there should not be a great change in the number of cells that undergo mitosis. The alternate is‚ if the lectin does induce mitosis‚ then there should be an increase in of cells in mitosis. The control group of the experiment had root tip treated with water‚ and the experimental had root tip treated with lectin. Upon the

of change. Carcinogenesis is the development of cancer. Cancer cells are abnormal cells and they have characteristics that can be associated with their ability to grow uncontrollably. Cancer cells are non-specialized‚ and divide uncontrollably. Cancer in situ is a tumor located in its place of origin. Malignant tumors establish new tumor distant from the primary tumors. Cancer cells characteristics distinguish them from normal cells. They have abnormal nuclei with many chromosomal irregularities
