Differences
100
Cell cytoplasm divides
What is cytokinesis?
100

It is a disease caused by the uncontrolled division of abnormal cells in a part of the body.

What is cancer?

100
Chromosomes are unwinding and become enclosed in the nucleus, and the cell begins to divide
What is telophase?
100

Here, the cell checks for and repairs errors in DNA replication before going on to mitosis.

What is G2 checkpoint?

100

This checkpoint makes sure that the DNA has been replicated and the cell is big enough.

What is a G2 checkpoint?

200
DNA replicates
What is the S phase?
200

During cell division, the DNA in eukaryotic cells is tightly packed and coiled into structures called

What are chromosomes?

200

Chromosomes are lined up on the cell's equator

What is metaphase?

200

Cells produced after mitosis

What is 2?

200

The shape of the structure that contains genetic information in prokaryotes.

What is ring-shaped?

300
The cell grows and carries out normal activities after division has occurred
What is the G1 phase?
300

It is a repeating series of events that describes the life of a cell.

What is a cell cycle?

300
The cell's chromosomes become visible, the nuclear membrane disappears, and the centrioles move to opposite sides of the cell
What is prophase?
300

The final phase of mitosis.

What is telophase?

300
Prokaryotes divide this way
What is binary fission?
400
The stage that includes G1, S, and G2
What is interphase?
400

Visible structure seen beginning in prophase

What is a chromosome?

400
Chromatids are pulled apart and become individual chromosomes
What is anaphase?
400

In humans, the number of chromosomes in each daughter cell after division.

What is 46?

400

Eukaryotes use these two steps to divide

What are mitosis and cytokinesis?

500
Cell preparation for division occurs
What is the G2 phase?
500
Nucleic acid that makes up the bulk of a chromosome
What is DNA?
500
Spindle fibers appear and attach to centromeres
What is prophase?
500

This must occur after Telophase has been completed.

What is cytokinesis?

500

This checkpoint makes sure that the chromosomes are aligned in the spindle.
