The lifespan of a cell that consists of interphase and cell division
What is the cell cycle?
100
microtubules, found in animal cells, that migrate to the poles during prophase
What are centrioles?
100
time, in mitosis, when sister chromatids separate
What is anaphase?
100
the reduction division that forms gametes
What is meiosis?
200
proteins that coil and compact DNA
What are histones
200
The time between cell divisions
What is interphase?
200
kinetochore and polar fibers. They radiate from the centrosomes.
What are spindle fibers
200
cells that have 2 sets of chromosomes
What is diploid?
200
the pairing of homologous chromosomes during prophase I form these
What are tetrads?
300
rod shaped structures made of DNA and protein
What is a chromasome?
300
The time in a cell cycle when DNA copies itself
What is S phase of interphase?
300
nuclear division of a cell
What is mitosis
300
the indentation made when the cell membrane is pinching inward during cytokinesis
What is cleavage furrow?
300
The exchanging of genetic information between homologous chromosomes in prophase I
What is crossing-over?
400
2 identical halves of a chromosome
What are sister chromatids?
400
The time when the cell makes final checks and prepares for cell division
What is gap 2 phase?
400
time when chromosomes migrate to the equator
What is metaphase
400
vesicles from the Golgi apparatus join together at the midline of a plant cell during cytokinesis to form this
What is cell plate?
400
cells that contain only 1 set of chromosomes
What is haploid?
500
The attachment point of 2 sister chromatids
What is a centromere?
500
the time after cell division when the cell grows to maturity and carries on cell activities.
What is gap 1 phase?
500
time when chromosomes coil and condense, nucleolus and nuclear envelope disappear, centrioles migrate to the poles, spindle forms, and chromosomes scatter on spindle
What is prophase?
500
2 cells identical to each other and to the original cell
What are daughter cells?
500
the phase of meiosis when homologous chromosomes separate
