Haploid	Diploid	Centromere	Autosome	Chromatid
Describes a cell, nucleus, or organism that has only one set of unpaired chromosomes.	A cell that contains two haploid sets of chromosomes.	The region of the chromosome that holds the two sister chromatids together during mitosis.	Any chromosome that is not a sex chromosome.	Half of a chromosome when it is in the duplicated form.

Homologous chromosomes	Karyotype	Meiosis	Interphase	Cytokinesis
Chromosomes that have the same sequence of genes, that have the same structure, and that pair during meiosis.	An array of the chromosomes found in an individual’s cells at metaphase of mitosis and arranged in homologous pairs and in order of diminishing size.	A process in cell division during which the number of chromosomes decreases to half the original number by two divisions of the nucleus, which results in the production of sex cells.	A period between two mitotic divisions where the cell grows, copies DNA and synthesizes proteins.	The part of mitosis where the cytoplasm is divided.

Mitosis	Prophase	Metaphase	Telophase	Anaphase
In eukaryotic cells, a process of cell division that forms two new nuclei, each of which has the same number of chromosomes.	The part of mitosis where chromosomes coil up and the nuclear envelope dissolves.	The part of mitosis where duplicated chromosomes line up at the equator of the cell.	The part of mitosis where a nuclear envelope forms around the chromosomes at each pole.	The part of mitosis where spindle fibers shorten and pull sister chromatids toward opposite poles of the cell.
