The stages of interphase and what happens in each phase.

What are G1 phase which is where the cells perform as normal and grow in size, S phase where DNA is replicated and normal functions cease, and then G2 phase in which the volume of cytoplasm is increased, and organelles are copied?

100

The following process follows these stages: interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, and cytokinesis.

What is the order of mitosis from beginning to end?

100

The event that occurs in S phase is that _______.

What is that the DNA replicates?

100

The cells that are the result of meiosis are all _______ used in _______

What are gametes that are used in sexual reproduction?

100

The thing that separates the sister chromatids during both mitosis and meiosis.

What are spindle fibers?

200

_________ during prophase.

What is the process of DNA condensing into chromosomes and the appearance of centrioles and spindle fibers?

200

The cell at the end of the process is genetically identical to the cell at the beginning of the process.

How similar is each daughter cell produced by mitosis to the parent cell?

200

The number of times that cells complete the cell cycle to complete the process of meiosis.

What is twice?

200

The cell cycle in order from beginning to end in meiosis is ______________________.

What is interphase, mitosis, and cytokinesis?

200

The phase in which cells spend most of their life.

What is interphase?

300

____________ during metaphase.

What is the process of the chromosomes lining up in the middle of the cell and the attachment of the spindle fibers?

300

Tumors can be produced because of ________.

What are faulty checkpoints?

300

The event that occurs in G1 phase is ________.

What is cell growth?

300

The purpose of DNA replication in the cell cycle is to ___________.

What is to replace old DNA

300

The roll that cell cycle checkpoints play in the cell cycle.

What is ensuring that cells divide in a proper and healthy way?

400

_________ during anaphase.

What is that the chromosomes are pulled apart and sister chromatids move to the opposite sides of the cell?

400

This happens during cytokinesis in mitosis.

What is the process of the cell membrane pinching to make 2 new identical daughter cells?

400

The purpose of interphase.

What is cell growth, DNA replication, and preparation for mitosis?

400

Draw a diagram of a cell in the cell cycle that contains centrioles and spindle fibers.  Highlight each in your diagram.

Cancer is uncontrolled cell growth.

What distinguishes cancer cell division from normal cell division?

500

There is one process that is vital during Telophase.

What is that the nuclear membranes reappear?

500

The number of cells that is produced by the process of mitosis.

What is two identical daughter cells?

500

The most important part of cytokinesis is ___________.

What is cytoplasm division?

500

Draw and label diagrams of each of the four main phases of mitosis: Prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.

[Insert drawing here] The correct answer is teacher's discretion.

500

The process that occurs when cells recognize unhealthy irregular cells and then destroys them.

What is apoptosis?
