Cell Cycle
Mitosis
Cancer
100
The longest part of the cell cycle when cells are performing normal functions is called this.
What is interphase?
100
This is the first phase of mitosis where chromosomes condense and the nuclear envelope disappears
What is prophase?
100

This is a type of treatment for cancer

What is chemotherapy or radiation

200
In this phase a cell will copy its DNA.
What is Synthesis or S Phase.
200
The daughter cells from mitosis are genetically _____ as compared to the parent cell.
What is identical?
200

This test is used to determine if there are mutated cells leading to cancer

What is a blood test?

300
Before the cell will enter mitosis, the cell performs these to look for errors.
What are checkpoints?
300
This occurs after telophase, when the cell divides the cytoplasm and other organelles.
What is cytokinesis.
300

Cancerous cells do this to the cell cycle or cell division

What is speed up and upregulate growth

400
A cell that has errors in the cell cycle or ignores signals to stop dividing or to die may form this.
What is cancer?
400
In this phase, the spindle fibers retract, pulling the chromatids apart.
What is anaphase.
400

Cancer cells are ccaused by _____ cells.

What are mutated cells?

500

The unwinding of DNA for replication is done in this phase.

S-PHASE or synthesis (Interphase)

500

This cell type undergoes mitosis very quickly in an adult human.

What is skin, stomach lining, hair, etc.

(SOMATIC)

500

The part of the cell cycle that must be regulated in order to stop the growth of cancer cells.

What is the S-phase (synthesis phase)?
