You are referring to palindromes.
1) racecar
2) mom
3) dad
4) pop
5) tot
Try googling palindromes.
Also, on a side note... There's a book by Barbara Kingsolver - It's called "The Poisonwood Bible". One of the main characters loves palindromes, and she's clever and interesting. A great read, in my opinion.
