G1, S and G2.
What are the phases of the Cell Cycle in Interphase.
100
The purpose of the cell cycle is to do this.
What is to create more cells?
100
The M phase is also known as this.
What is Mitosis?
100

These cells reproduce at a fast pace because of genetic mutation.

What are cancer cells?

100

Sister chromatids separate in...

What is anaphase?

200

During this phase, the cells produce grow in size and mature.

What is G1?

200

Daughter cells are __________ of the original cells from which they were made.

What are identical copies?

200
During this phase of Mitosis the spindle fibers disappear and two new nuclear membranes appear.
What is Telophase?
200
Cell division in cancer cells is uncontrolled because they are unable to produce these to regulate the cycle.
What are proteins?
200

At the end of M phase, it is the number of cells produced.

What is 2?

300

During this phase the cell prepares to divide and copies the organelles.

What is G2?

300

Cell division occurs fastest in people who are __________.

What is younger?

300
During this phase of Mitosis, sister chromatid seperate and move to opposite ends of the cells along the spindle fibers.
What is Anaphase?
300
A build up of cancer cells form these on organs in the body.
What are tumors?
300

Two causes of cancer cells...

What is genetic (mutation) and environmental?

400
During this phase, the cell makes exact copies of each chromosome.
What is S?
400

Cell division is controlled through the production of these.

What are proteins (cyclins)?

400
During this phase of Mitosis, the nuclear membrane dissolves and the chromosomes condense inside the nucleus.
What is Prophase?
400
Through this process, cancer cells break away from their original site and move through the blood stream to other parts of the body.
What is Metastasis?
400

Cell growth is limited because of...

What is surface area to volume (allows cell transport to be efficient)?

500

Cells go through the G1, S and G2 to produce damaged or lost cells in ________________.

What are tissues?

500
These cells don't allow the body to regulate the cell cycle.
What are cancer cells?
500
During this phase of Mitosis, the duplicated chromosomes line up along the spindle fibers in the center of the nucleus.
What is Metaphase?
500

Two main categories of cancer.

What is blood cancer or solid tumors?

500

This is what can happen if chromosomes do not move to opposite ends of the cell in equal amounts during anaphase.

What is too many or too few chromosomes in the cell?
