Mitosis
Cell Growth
100
As a cell becomes this, it is more difficult for a cell to move enough nutrients and get rid of wastes
What is larger
100
Mitosis begins during this phase of the cell cycle
What is M phase
100
During this type of reproduction, cells can produce genetically identical offspring.
What is asexual reproduction
100
Chromosomes line up along the middle of the dividing cell during this stage
What is metaphase
100
This is a disorder in which some cells have lost the ability to control their growth
What is cancer
200
The larger a cell becomes, it becomes more/less efficient
What is less
200
DNA gets replicated during this phase of the cell cycle.
What is S phase
200
During this type of reproduction, cells can produce genetically different offspring.
What is sexual reproduction
200
These help separate the chromosomes during mitosis
What are spindle fibers?
200
In eukaryotic cells, the timing of the cell cycle is regulated by these
What is cyclins
300
As a cell gets larger this ratio grows faster
What is the surface area/volume
300
Centrioles duplicate during this phase
What is G2
300
Prokaryotes divide by this type of cell division
What is binary fission
300
The structure that holds sister chromatids together is called this
What is a centromere
300
Cancer cells from masses called this
What is tumor
400
Three problems that a cell faces when it gets too large are
What is can't get enough nutrients, can't get rid of waste, more demands on its DNA
400
Interphase consists of these 3 phases
What is G1, S, G2
400
Mitosis is an example of this type of cell division
What is asexual reproduction
400
A doctor might treat a patient with cancer by giving the patient drugs that can kill cells that are rapidly dividing.
What is chemotherapy
500
A cell that has 5 chromosomes in the G1 phase will have this number of chromatids in the G2 phase
What is 10
500
An advantage of sexual reproduction over asexual reproduction is this
What is genetic diversity
500
In animal cells, this part connects to the spindle fibers
What is the centriole
500
During normal development, the cells between fingers and toes die by this
What is apoptosis
