Interphase
Cell Parts
Phases
Phases: Challenge
Cancer
100
Interphase starts with this
What is G1?
100
These are compact, X shaped structures of DNA
What are chromosomes?
100
This is the first phase of mitosis
What is prophase?
100
In prophase, DNA starts to form these
What are chromosomes?
100
A mass of deformed/defunct cell
What is a tumor?
200
During interphase, cells are doing these processes
What is growing/metabolizing/making organelles?
200
This membrane has to break down in order to start mitosis
What is the nuclear envelope?
200
During this phase, chromosomes move to opposite poles of the cell
What is anaphase?
200
During prophase, these start to appear next to the nucleus in the cytoplasm
What are spindle fibers/centrioles?
200
This word, used to describe cancer, means cells that have gone "rogue" and are bad
What is malignant?
300
This occurs during S phase
What is DNA replication?
300
These attach to chromosomes so they can be moved to opposite poles of the cell
What are spindle fibers/microtubules?
300
In this phase, two new daughter cells are formed
What is telophase?
300
During anaphase, chromosomes move toward these (be specific)
What is opposite poles of the cell?
300
Cancer is caused by the cell's inability to regulate this process
What is the cell cycle/mitosis?
400
The S in S phase stands for this
What is synthesis?
400
In interphase, DNA is in the form of this
What is chromatin?
400
In this phase, chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell
What is metaphase?
400
This term means cancer cells spreading throughout the body via the bloodstream
What is metastasis?
500
The G in G phase stands for this
What is gap/growth?
500
These produce the structures responsible for moving chromosomes during mitosis
What are centrioles/centrosomes?
500
The splitting of the cytoplasm into two is called this
What is cytokinesis?
500
Because of DNA replication that happens in S phase, daughter cells formed in mitosis are this
What is genetically identical?
500
This is the underlying cause of all cancers, and the reason why certain chemicals and UV rays cause cancer
What is damage to DNA?
