This process results in two identical daughter cells.
What is mitosis?
100
Cancerous growth of cells.
What is a tumor?
100
This is the part of the onion root that is mitotically active.
What is the apical meristem?
200
Chromosomes are separated to opposite ends of the cell.
What is anaphase?
200
Programmed cell death.
What is apoptosis?
200
During this phase DNA replicates and prepares for mitosis.
What is the S-phase?
300
Chromosomes multiply, spindle fiber forms.
What is prophase?
300
This gene is the "guardian angel of the genome."
What is the p53 gene?
300
This phase is entered after G1 phase if the cell is not ready to continue with cell replication.
What is G0 phase?
400
This structure forms to assist in the lining up of the chromosomes on the metaphase plate.
What is the mitotic spindle?
400
An outgrowth of cancer from one area of the body to other parts of the body.
What is metastasis?
400
This is the final checkpoint before the cell enters mitosis.
What is the G2 checkpoint?
500
This structure holds the sister chromatids together.
What is the kinetochore?
500
This is the study of cancer.
