This stage of the cell cycle includes G1, G2 and S phases.
What is interphase?
100
A chromosome is made of this.
What is DNA?
100
During this stage of the M phase, the nucleus divides.
What is mitosis?
100
These are proteins that regulate cell division on the inside of the cell.
What is internal factors?
100
This type of reproduction occurs from a single parent and creates offspring that are genetically identical.
What is asexual reproduction?
200
This is the longest stage in the cell cycle.
What is interphase?
200
DNA wraps around these compacting the DNA. They look like beads on a string.
What are histones?
200
In this stage of mitosis, the chromosomes line up down the middle of the cell.
What is metaphase?
200
This is a type of external factor that stimulate cell division.
What are growth factors?
200
unicellular organisms reproduce their "babies" in this way.
What is mitosis or asexual reproduction?
300
In this part of interphase DNA is replicated.
What is the S phase?
300
A duplicated chromosome is made up of two of these.
What are sister chromatids?
300
This is the phase of the M phase when the cytoplasm divides.
What is cytokinesis?
300
This is a disease caused by uncontrolled cell division.
What is cancer?
300
These are said to be things that cause cancer.
What are carcinogens?
400
The G phases are both stages of this.
What is growth?
400
So that the chromosomes can separate, spindle attaches to this part of the chromosome.
What is the centromere?
400
These two stages of the M phase often overlap.
What are telophase and cytokinesis?
400
Cancerous tumor is called this.
What is malignant?
400
This is a phase of mitosis when the chromosomes can be seen easily for the first time because the nuclear envelope has disappeared and chromosomes have been doubled.
What is prophase?
500
This is the stage of the cell cycle where the cell divides.
What is the M phase?
500
These are the ends of the DNA molecules on the chromosome.
What are telomeres?
500
These structures pull the chromosomes apart in anaphase.
What are spindle fibers?
500
When cancer cells break away from the tumor and spread to other parts of the body, it is called...
What is metastasize?
500
In a plant cell, cytokinesis looks different because of this.
