100

This is a 6 step process where one cell divides into two identical cells.

Cell Cycle

100

This 4 step process that, shorthanded by PMAT, is known as...

Mitosis

100

This is the last phase of mitosis where the nuclear membrane starts to reform and the cell starts to pinch and separate.

Telophase

200
This is the name of tightly coiled strands of DNA found within the nucleus of a cell.

Chromosomes

200

Two cells that have the same number of chromosomes as the end result of mitosis is called...

Daughter Cells

200

This phase of mitosis is when the chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell.

Metaphase

300

A small section of DNA that has specific instructions for one type of physical trait.

Gene

300

This is the control center of a cell that contains all the DNA.

Nucleus

300

This phase of mitosis is when the nuclear membrane disappears and the chromosomes become visible.

Prophase

400

This is the name of an unspecialized cell that can divide into two identical cells.

Stem Cell

400

During the cell cycle, the cell spends most of the time in Interphase so the DNA can do something very special.

DNA Replication / Replicate

400

This phase is when the chromosomes start to get pulled apart towards opposite ends of the cell.

Anaphase

500

DNA is made up of 3 parts, which all together are called...

Nucleotides

500

In order for a stem cell to become a specific type of body cell, it needs to undergo a this process.
