mitosis
sexual reproduction
100
Series of events in which a cell grows, prepares fro division and divides to form two daughter cells
What is the Cell Cycle
100
Period of the cell cycle between cell divisions
What is Interphase
100
One of a family proteins that regulates the cell cycle in eukaryotic cells
What is Cyclin
100
Developing state of a multicellular organism
What is an Embryo
100
Threadlike structure within the nucleus that contains genetic information that is passed from one generation to the next
What is a Chromosome
200
Process by which a cell divides into two new daughter cells
What is Cell Division
200
First and longest phase of mitosis in which the genetic material inside the nucleus condense and the chromosomes become visible
What is Prophase
200
Disorder in which of the body's cells lose ability to control growth.
What is Cancer
200
Process in which cells become specialized in structure and function
What is Differentiation
200
Substance found eukaryotic chromosomes that consists of DNA tightly coiled around histones
What is Chromatin
300
Process of reproduction involving a single parent that results in offspring that are genetically identical to the parent.
What is Asexual Reproduction
300
Phase of mitosis in which chromosomes line up in the center of the cell
What is metaphase
300
Mass of rapidly cells that can damage surrounding tissue.
What is a Tumor
300
Cells that are able to develop into any type of cell found in the body
What is Totipotent
300
Division of the cytoplasm to form two seperate daughter cells
What is Cytokinesis
400
Type of reproduction in which cells from two parents unite to fore the first cell of a new organism.
What is Sexual Reproduction
400
Phase in mitosis in which chromosomes sepearate and move to opposite ends of the cell
What is Anaphase
400
Process of programmed cell death
What is Apoptosis
400
Stage of early development in mammals that consists of a hollow ball of cells
What is Blastocyst
400
Region of a chromosome where the two sister chromatins attach
What is the Centromere
500
BONUS: Structure in an anaimal cell that helps to organize cell division
What is the Centriole
500
Phase of mitosis in which the distinct individual chromosomes begin to spread out into a tangle of chromatin
What is Telophase
500
One of a group of external regulatory proteins that stimulate the growth and division of cells
What is Growth Factor
500
Cells that are capable of developing into most but not all of the body's cell types
