What is a series of events that takes place in a cell as it grows and divides.
What is the cell cycle?
1)What is the first stage of Mitosis 2)Describe what happens during this stage
What is Prophase: Nuclear envelope disappears, mitotic spindle appears. Chromomosomes condense
What is last stage of the cell cycle
what is cytokinesis - the process by which 1 cell split into 2
Longest part of cell cycle (90%). Cells grow and copy chromosomes and prepares for division.
What is interphase(Includes G1, S, G2 phase) .
1)What is the 2nd stage of Mitosis 2)Describe what happens during this stage
What is Prometaphase: chromosomes attach to mitotic spindle
what is benign
What is a non harmful disease or tumor
What is the process of when a cell separates its DNA into two sets and divides its cytoplasm, forming two new cells.
What is mitosis?
1)What is the 3rd stage of Mitosis 2)Describe what happens during this stag
What is Metaphase: chromosomes line up in center of cell.
What is a malignant tumor
What is a tumor that is invasive and impairs functions of organs
What are the parts of the cell cycle? There are 2
What is Interphase(Includes G1, S, G2 phase) and mitosis
1)What is the 4th stage of Mitosis 2)Describe what happens during this stage
What is Anaphase: sister chromatids move to opposite poles.
The spread of cancer cells from the place where they first formed to another part of the body
What is metastasis
What are the 5 phases of Mitosis?
What is
Prophase(1)
Prometaphase(2)
Metaphase(3)
Anaphase(4)
Telophase(5)
1)What is the 5th stage of Mitosis 2)Describe what happens during this stage
What is Telophase: chromosomes loosen to chromatin, nuclear envelope reforms and mitotic spindle disappears.
