How many cells form after mitosis?
What is two cells?
Area where spindle fibers attach to chromosome
What is centromere
What are the 4 stages of mitosis? (in order)
What is prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophases?
the chromosomes first start to condense in this phase
What is prophase?
What is the term for the uncontrolled and rapid division of cells, often associated with the formation of tumors?
What is cancer?
What is the term for a type of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half, leading to the formation of haploid cells?
What is meiosis?
