Stages of Cell Cycle
Chromosome structure
Mitosis
Meiosis
Cancer + Other
100
Occurs after Telophase, is not a part of Mitosis, and divides the cytoplasm in half.
Cytokenesis
100
The center of a chromosome where the spindle fibers attach, and where chromosomes attache to form a Tetrad
Centromere
100
Chromosomes are decondensing and become enclosed in the nucleus, and the cell begins to divide
Telophase
100
What happens in Prophase I that doesn't happen in Prophase II or prophase in mitosis?
Crossing over
100
What forms in the equator of a plant cell during cytokinesis
Cell Plate
200
What happens during the S part of Interphase?
DNA replicates
200
Half of a chromosome, with identical genetic material
Sister Chromatid
200
Chromosomes are lined up on the cell's equator
Metaphase
200
What type of cells does Meiosis occur in?
Sexual or Germ cells (Gametes)
200
What forms in animal cells during cytokinesis?
Cleavage Furrow
300
What part of interphase does the cell perform normal growth?
G1
300
The process by which chromosomes share genetic information and increase genetic variation.
Crossing Over and/or Independent Assortment
300
The cell's chromosomes become visible, the nuclear membrane disappears, and the centrioles move to opposite sides of the cell
Prophase
300
How many divisions occur in Meiosis
2
300
Prokaryotes divide this way
Binary Fission
400
What stage occurs before Mitosis?
Interphase
400
A cell that contains one set of chromosomes, or half the total number (n)
Haploid
400
Chromosomes are pulled apart and become individual chromatids
Anaphase
400
What are the results of Meiosis?
4 haploid cells
400
What do you call something that damages DNA and causes cancer?
Carcinogen
500
What part of interphase does the cell grow in preparation for cell division?
G2
500
Cell that contains both sets of chromosomes, or the total number needed (2n)
Diploid
500
What are the results of mitosis
2 identical diploid cells
500
Are the products of Meiosis genetically identical?
No
500
Type of tumor that is cancerous and can travel throughout the body
Malignant
