Cells
Cell division allows organisms to
Heal and repair damaged parts
Phase of cell cycle where cell gets a signal to divide. Grows in size and doubles its contents
In ___ cells, cell wall cannot pinch in, forms cell plate.
Plant
Cancer because they only need to divide for grow/repair
DNA replication results in the forms threadlike structures called
chromosomes
Cell division allows single cell organisms to
Grow and reproduce
DNA condense into chromosomes (contains 2 sister chromatids) and nuclear membrane starts to break down
Prophase
In ___ cells, cell membrane pinches in to divide
animal
Chromosomes are made of ___ and ____
DNA and protein
Each chromosome inside the nucleus of the cell contains two identical sets of DNA, called ____
chromatids
Regular sequence of events that allows for cell division to form two daughter cells
Cell cycle
Chromosomes line up at middle of cell
Metaphase
Types of cells that do not undergo mitosis
Reproduction cells (sperm and egg cells)
How does the number of cells increase with each new division
It increases by times 2
During ___, the cell's nucleus divides into two new nuclei and one set of DNA is distributed into each daughter cell.
Mitosis
Replication
Chromatids are pulled apart by spindle fibers to each side of the cell
Anaphase
In mitosis, the cells that are created are ____ cells
identical
The cells cytoplasm physically divides in two and distributes the organelles into each of the two new cells in a phase called
cytokinesis
When cytokinesis is complete, each daughter cell has the same number of ____ as the parent cell
chromosomes
In the final stage of the cell cycle, there is division of ___ and distribution of organelles into each daughter cell
Cytoplasm
Chromatids are pulled to opposite sides of the cell. Nuclear membrane reforms around DNA
Telophase
Cytokinesis usually starts at about the same times as ___
telophase
Substances that speed up chemical reactions in living things
Enzymes
