the cell cycle
The growth phase of the cell cycle.
What is interphase?
What is mitosis, and cytokinesis?
All cells must do this to pass on their genetic material to future generations, and grow
What is reproduction?
These are the four phases in mitosis.
What is prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase?
This spherical part of a cell contains genetic information.
What is the nucleus?
The cell's activities are monitored at specific _________
What are checkpoints?
The final stage in the cell cycle.
What is cytokinesis?
This allows cells to reproduce, grow, and repair damage.
What is cell division?
In this phase, the daughter chromosomes are no longer visible.
What is anaphase?
This person described cells by observing cork.
Who is Robert Hooke?
These are in very long, thin, invisible strands.
What is DNA?
During this stage of cell division, the nucleus is divided.
What is mitosis?
What are gamete cells?
What are spindle fibers?
__________ cells are single-celled life forms, such as E.coli.
What are prokaryotes?
This stage of the cell cycle carries out all activities, like growth, and cellular respiration - except cellular division.
What is interphase?
During this phase, the spindle fibers pull the chromosomes into the middle of the cell.
What is metaphase?
What is osmosis?
The stage of mitosis where the sister chromatids seperate into daughter chromosomes.
What is anaphase?
These are random changes which occur in the DNA.
What is a mutation?
What are 2 daughter cells?
What are animal [cells]?
This may happen if the DNA in a cell is damaged.
What is cell repair?
What is telophase?
Tumour formation may occur because of this.
What is uncontrollable cell division?
