A cell will continue to go through mitosis until it runs of of what?
What is space?
100
The development of many different types of cell from only one cell
What is cellular differentiation?
100
Out of control mitosis and cell growth
What is cancer?
200
Pull the chromosomes apart
What are the spindle fibers?
200
Time for the nuclear membrane to dissolve and for chromosomes to thicken out of the tangle of genetic material
What is prophase?
200
Tells the cell to start or stop mitosis or to go onto the next stage
What is protein code?
200
Cells that can become any type of cell
What are stem cells?
200
Group of cancer cells
What is a tumor?
300
dissolves during the first stages of mitosis
What is the nuclear membrane?
300
The chromosomes will align along the center axis of the cell
What is metaphase?
300
Mitosis will be forced to begin or speed up in response to:
What is injury or cell death?
300
Organism made only of stem cells?
What is an embryo?
300
Tumor that has not spread to surrounding tissue or other parts of the body
What is a benign tumor?
400
They move to opposite poles of the cell to aid in the division of the cell
What are the centriomeres?
400
The spindle fibers will connect with the chromosomes to pull half of the genetic material to each pole of the cell
What is anaphase
400
Apoptosis occurs in fetal development and allows for individual fingers and toes to develop. What is apoptosis?
What is cell death?
400
Make any type of blood cell possible in adult human bone marrow
What are stem cells?
400
Tumor where the cancer cells spread to the surrounding tissue or to other parts of the body?
What is a malignant tumor?
500
This is the liquid-like substance that contains all of the organelles of the cell.
What is cytoplasm?
500
Half of the genetic material is located at the poles of the cell and the spindle fibers are disappearing as the nuclear membranes begin to form
What is telophase?
500
The cell finishes dividing by becoming two cells. This STOPS mitosis for the two cells and they will both enter interphase.
What is cytokinesis?
500
Stem cells in large numbers can only be harvested from living embryos. Thus killing the embryo.
What is controversy over stem cell research?
500
This will kill the cancer cells because their DNA is "unwrapped" as the cells go through mitosis. These cancer cells are continuously in mitosis meaning that these cells will always have exposed DNA.
