Picture This
100
The longest part of the cell cycle when cells are performing normal functions is called this.
Interphase
100
This is the first phase of mitosis where chromosomes condense and the nuclear envelope disappears
Prophase
100
What are the two different cell types of meiosis?
Diploid and Haploid
100
DNA that is scrunched up in the nucleus of dividing cells
Chromosomes
100
What phase is this?
Interphase
200
In this phase a cell will copy its DNA?
S-Phase / Synthesis
200
The daughter cells from mitosis are genetically _____ as compared to the parent cell.
Identical
200
This is the name scientists give to the _____ cells produced in meiosis. (sperm / egg)
Daughter Cells
200
The area of the cell membrane that pinches to separate the dividing cell into 2 new cells
Cleavage Furrow
200
What phase is this?
Anaphase
300
Before the cell will enter mitosis, the cell performs checkpoints at these stages?
Checkpoints: G1, S, G2
300
This occurs after telophase, when the cell divides the cytoplasm and other organelles.
Cytokinesis
300
This is the phase in which crossing over occurs.
Prophase I
300
Proteins that regulate the cell cycle at certain checkpoints?
Cyclins
300
What type of cell is this?
Haploid Cell
400
A cell that has errors in the cell cycle or ignores signals to stop dividing may form this.
Tumor / Cancer cell
400
In this phase, the spindle fibers retract, pulling the chromatids apart.
Anaphase
400
When two chromosomes that code for the same genetic information are paired, it is called this.
Homologous Pair
400
Type of cell division used by eukaryotic cells that are identical to the starting cell
Mitosis / Cytokinesis
400
What is the genetic disorder? And is it a boy or girl?
Down Syndrome & Girl
500
A cell may enter this resting phase where it is not dividing.
G0 Phase
500
This cell type undergoes mitosis very quickly in an adult human.
Skin Cells, Stomach Lining, Hair, etc.
500
This is a result of independent assortment in meiosis.
Genetic Variation
500
Structures at the poles to which the spindle fibers attach and pull the chromosomes
Centromeres
500
