Interphase
What type of reproduction is Mitosis?
Asexual Reproduction
The uncontrolled division of cells that results in malignant growth
Cancer
What phase of the cell cycle do Chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell?
Metaphase
What organelle houses DNA?
Nucleus
G1, S, G2
How many daughter cells are produced each time a cell goes through mitosis?
Cells that do not proceed through the cell cycle and divide uncontrollably are indicative of
Cancer
The phase in Mitosis where the sister chromatids separate from each other is called...
Anaphase
What is DNA made up of?
Nucleotides
During what phases is the cell growing as it prepares for division?
G1 and G2
If a cell containing 14 chromosomes undergoes mitosis, how many chromosomes will the resulting daughter cell have?
14
How many checkpoints are included in the cell cycle
3 Checkpoints
Division of the cytoplasm
Centromeres
What occurs during S phase
DNA synthesis
How many times does a cell divide each time it goes through mitosis?
1
A cell does this when it can not fix itself
Apoptosis
Substage of Interphase immediately after a cell divides
G1
The two halves of a chromosome after DNA replication has occurred are called?
Sister Chromatids
To ensure there is enough DNA for the daughter cells
What is the result when a single cell reproduces by mitosis?
Two cells with genetic material identical to the parent cell
1. Fix the mutation
2. Apoptosis
Name all 8 phases in order of the Cell Cycle
G1, S, G2, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase, Cytokinesis
A highly coiled strand of DNA is called
Chromosome
