100
When the chromosome pairs separate and move towards opposite poles...
What phase is Anaphase?
100
Identical "sister" parts of a chromosome.
What is a Chromatid?
100
The entire process by which a cell divides into two "daughter" cells...
What is Cell Division?
100
Where the chromosomes become visible and the centrioles separate and take up positions on the opposite sides of the nucleus...
What is Prophase?
100
This regulates the timing of the cell cycle of eukaryotic cells...
What is a Cyclin (or internal regulator protein)?
200
Cytokinesis occurs after division of the nucleus and DNA, which is called this
What is Mitosis?
200
Series of events that cells go through as they grow and divide.
What is the Cell Cycle?
200
When this happens to a cell it, the cell has more trouble moving enough nutrients and wastes across the cell membrane...
What happens during cell growth?
200
Period of a the cell cycle between cell divisions...
What is Interphase?
200
1. All living things are made of cells... 2.The cell is the basic unit of life... 3.Cells come from preexisting cells...
What is the Cell Theory?
300
A fanlike microtubule structure that helps separate the chromosomes during mitosis.
What is a Spindle or Spindle Fiber?
300
One of two tiny structures located in the cytoplasm of animal cells near the nuclear envelope.
What is a Centriole?
300
The division of cytoplasm...
What is cytokinesis?
300
A period of activity in which cells do most of their growing...
What is the G1 phase?
300
The cell goes through the cell cycle to divide when this happens...
What happens when a cell gets too big?
400
When the chromosomes begin to disperse into a tangle of dense material...
What is Telophase?
400
A disorder in which some of the body's own cells lose the ability to control growth.
What is Cancer?
400
The division of the cell nucleus...
What is Mitosis?
400
Many of the organelles and molecules required for cell divisions are produced.
What is the G2 phase?
400
Chromatids and Centromeres are both parts of one of these
What are the chromosomes?
500
Where chromatids are attached...
What is a Centromere?
500
One of a family of closely related internal proteins that regulate the cell cycle in eukaryotic cells.
What is Cyclin?
500
These are the two main stages of cell division

500
Chromosomes are replicated during which part of interphase?
What is the S phase?
500
These two parts of the cell have a hard time as a cell grows too large
What are the cell membrane and the nucleus (or DNA)?
