Stages of Cell Cycle
In this phase a cell will copy its DNA
What is Synthesis or S Phase?
DNA is organized into segments called _________.
What are genes?
Cell division is essential for what process?
Chromosomes before mitosis = 46. Chromosomes at end of mitosis in each cell =
What is 46?
What does the red blood cell lack from the other cells in the bod?
What is nucleus?
DNA replicates
What is S phase?
One half of a duplicated chromosome
What is a sister chromatid?
Chromosomes are lined up on the cell's equator
What is metaphase?
What happens during cell division?
What is growth and repair?
What does the prokaryotic cells lack that the eukaryotic cell has?
What is nucleus and membran-bound organelle
The cell grows and carries out normal activities after division has occurred
What is the G1 phase?
What is the transmission of genetic characteristics from parent to offspring?
What is hereditary?
The cell's chromosomes become visible, the nuclear membrane disappears, and the centrioles move to opposite sides of mitosis the cell
What is prophase?
There are two chromatids are in a _______
Prokaryotes divide this way
What is binary fission?
The stage that includes G1, S, and G2
What is interphase?
Changes in genetic information passed from cell to cell and parent to offspring
What is a mutation
Chromatids are pulled apart and become individual chromosomes of mitosis
What is anaphase?
How many times does a cell divide in each cell cycle
What is one time?
Eukaryotes use these two steps to divide
What are mitosis and cytokinesis?
Cell preparation for division occurs
What is the G2 phase?
DNA makes up the bulk of a what?
What is chromosome?
Spindle fibers appear and attach to centromeres
What is prophase of mitosis
Nuclei if cell doesn't finish cytokinesis?
What is 2?
Prokaryotic is bacterium while eukaryotic is
What is humans?
