What is a chromatid?
The 7 stages of the cell cycle.
What are Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase, G1, S, G2.
The stage at which chromosomes first become visible.
What is prophase?
The person whose cells were non-consensually removed and used for genetics research.
Who was Henrietta Lacks?
The center of a chromatid or chromosome.
What is a centromere?

The phase of mitosis in which two columns of chromosomes are visible.
What is anaphase?
Shorthand for the cells derived from Henrietta Lacks.
What are HeLa Cells?
The protein within a chromosome.
What is a histone?
The stage of the cell cycle at which chromosomes gain a second chromatid.
What is S phase?
The stage of the cell cycle in which spindle fibers attach to chromosomes.
What is metaphase?
Genes that promote cell division.
What are proto-oncogenes?
The result of a chromosome being damaged during mitosis.
What is a chromosomal mutation?
The stage of the cell cycle at which chromosomes only have one chromatid each.
What is G1 phase?
The organelle produced by plant cells during telophase.
What is the cell plate?
