G1, S and G2.
What are the phases of the Cell Cycle in Interphase.
100
The purpose of the cell cycle is to do this.
What is to create more cells?
100
The longest first phase and the shortest second phase of mitosis.
What are propahse and metaphase?
100
These are environmental factors that can cause cancer
What are carcinogens?
100
Controversial but extremely useful to find therapies and cures for diseases
What is embryonic stem cells?
200
During this phase, the cells produce protiens and grow in size.
What is G1?
200
Daughter cells are __________ of the original cells from which they were made.
What are exact copies?
200
During this phase of Mitosis the spindle fibers disappear and two new nuclear membranes appear.
What is Telophase?
200
Cell division in cancer cells is uncontrolled because they are unable to produce these to regulate the cycle.
What are proteins?
200
This is programmed cell death when cells are no longer needed.
What is the apoptosis?
300
During this phase there is very little activity within the cell.
What is G2?
300
The shortest phase of the cell cycle.
What is Mitosis?
300
During this phase of Mitosis, sister chromatids seperate and move to opposite ends of the cells along the spindle fibers.
What is Anaphase?
300
A build up of cancer cells form these on organs in the body.
What are tumors?
300
Cancer cells alter the __________ of organs and tissues.
What is the structure?
400
During this phase, the cell makes exact copies of each chromosome.
What is S?
400
Cell division is controlled through the production of these proteins and enzymes.
What are cyclin and cdks?
400
During this phase of Mitosis, the nuclear membrane dissolves and the chromosomes condense inside the nucleus.
What is Prophase?
400
Through this process, cancer cells break away from their original site and move through the blood stream to other parts of the body.
What is Metastasis?
400
A group of tissues that work together to perform a specific function.
What is an organ?
500
Cells go through the G1, S and G2 to produce damaged or lost cells in these.
What are tissues?
500
This cell doesn't allow the body to regulate its cell cycle.
What is a cancer cell?
500
During this phase of Mitosis, the duplicated chromosomes line up along the spindle fibers in the center of the nucleus.
What is Metaphase?
500
Cancer cells differ from normal cells because they do not have this quality.
What is control of the cell cycle?
500
Adult Stem cells can only create certain types of cells.
What is multipotent?
