Are cancer and Mitosis the same things? Explain.
No, Cancer is the uncontrolled division of cells, while Mitosis is controlled.

Name number 2
Centromere
200
What structure guides the movement of chromosomes?
Spindle fibers
300
Describe the process of Metaphase
the second stage of cell division, between prophase and anaphase, during which the chromosomes become attached to the spindle fibers
300
During which phase does the number of chromosomes briefly double?
Anaphase
300
True or false: Cytokinesis is included in the phases of Mitosis
False
300
Mitosis results in the formation of what?
2 genetically identical daughter cells
400
In what phase does DNA duplicate?
Interphase
400
What does a cell do after it completes telophase and cytokinesis?
Begins interphase
400
Free space!
You get a free point! Yay!
400
If the chromosomes were not able to reproduce during the S phase of interphase, what would occur?
The cell could not divide
500
True or false: Interphase is not included in the phases of Mitosis.
True!
500
What is a major event of Metaphase?
Chromosomes align along the middle of the cell
500
What is the function of a Spindle Fiber?
They pull apart Chromosomes.
500
What is a major event of Prophase?
Chromosomes begin to condense
