What does the cell cycle control system consist of
Specialized proteins within the cell
Cancer is a ____ of the cell cycle
Disease
How many gametes are in Meiosis

How many gametes are in Mitosis
4
Haploids in Mitosis and Meiosis; they are identical
What is Cell division (reproduction)
Two “daughter“ cells produced genetically identical to each other and the “parent” cell
How does cancer respond to the cell cycle control system
Not normally
How many germ cells are in Meiosis
8
How many germ cells are in Mitosis
6
A source of other cells that divides to create two
”daughter” cells
What is a cell plate
A membranous disk that grows outward
What do cancer cells form
Tumors, abnormally growing masses of body cells
What does Meiosis begin with
A “parent“ cell
What is the first stage in mitosis
prophase
Genes
A unit of heredity which is transferred from a parent to offspring and is held to determine some characteristic of the offspring
What is a cell cycle
ordered sequence of events that extend from the time a cell is first formed from a dividing parent cell to its own division
What are the two types of cancer cells
Henign tumors and Malignant tumors
What is the purpose of Meiosis
To shuffle genetic information and cut the cellular chromosomes number in half
What is the purpose of Mitosis
Development and growth
DNA
A self-replicating material that is present in nearly all living organisms as the main constituent of chromosome; the carrier of genetic information
