The third stage of mitosis during which kinetochore microtubules align sister chromatids along the equator of the cell.
What is metaphase?
100
two chromatids are joined together especially tightly at a narrow waist
What is centromere?
100
the creation of identical offspring by a single parent, without the participation of sperm and egg
What is asexual reproduction?
100
true or false a cell plate is in an animal cell
What is false.
100
an abnormally growing mass of body cells
What is tumor?
200
The first stage of mitosis, during which visibly dark, condensed chromosomes are found in the nuclear envelope.
What is prophase?
200
an ordered sequence of events that extends from the time a cell is first formed from a dividing parent cell until its own division into two cells
What is cell cycle?
200
the structures that contain most of the organism's DNA
What is chromosome?
200
a cleavage furrow creates two daughter cells of this cell
What is animal?
200
this tumor remains at its original site
What is benign?
300
The fifth and final stage of mitosis before cytokinesis, the nuclear envelope re-forms around separated sister chromatids and kinetochore microtubules disappear. Cell elongation and decondensation of chromosomes also occur.
What is telophase
300
An imaginary line found half way between the two mitotic spindle poles on which chromosomes align during metaphase.
What is metaphase plate?
300
genetically resemble their parents more closely than they resemble unrelated individuals of the same species, but they are not identical to their parents or each other
What is sexual reproduction
300
this cell does not change size or shape during cellular division.
What is plant cell.
300
this tumor can spread into neighboring tissues and other parts of the body, displacing normal tissue and interrupting organ function as it goes.
What is malignant tumor?
400
The second stage of mitosis during which the nuclear envelope disassembles and microtubules gain access to chromosome kinetochores.
What is prometaphase?
400
A complex of microtubules that form between opposite poles of a cell during mitosis. Serve to separate and move sister chromatids to opposite ends of the cell for division.
What is mitotic spindle?
400
the reproduction of a cell
What is cell division?
400
a shallow groove in the cell surface
What is cleavage furrow?
400
cancers of blood-forming tissues, such as bone marrow, spleen, and lymph nodes
What is leukemia and lymphomas?
500
The fourth stage of mitosis during which sister chromosomes are separated and pulled to opposite ends of the cell by kinetochore microtubules.
What is anaphase?
500
a protein secreted by certain body cells that stimulate other cells to divide
What is growth factor?
500
a means pf asexual reproduction in which a parent organism, often single cell, divides into two individuals of about equal size.
What is binary fission?
500
this grows outward, accumulating more cell wall materials as more vesicles fuse with it
What is cell plate?
500
cancers that originate in the external or internal coverings of the body, such as the skin or the lining of the intestines
