What is Telophase and Cytokinesis

200

Throughout the cell cycle there are _____.

checkpoints. 
200

Reproductive cells. 

What are Gametes cells . 

200
Proteins attached to the centromere that line each sister chromatid to the mitotic spindle.

What is kinetochore.

200

Cell completes the whole cell cycle

What is Go signal

300
In what phase do sister chromatids separate and move to opposite ends of the cell due to the microtubules shortening and cells elongate?

300

Cell enters a nondividing state known as G0 phase. 

What is stop signal

What is prophase.

400

Normal cells become ____ through DNA mutations. 

cancerous. 

400

These cells evade apoptosis and continue dividing even with errors. 

What are Cancerous cells.

400

Condensed chromatin after DNA replication

400

Checks microtubule attachment to chromosomes at the kinetochores at metaphase. 

What is M (spindle) checkpoint. 

500

What is metastasis. 

500

Cells can stay in this phase forever. 

What is G0 checkpoint.
