QuestionAnswer
cell division the process where single-celled organisms reproduce and how multi-celled organisms are formed; repairs and replaces cells and tissues, the process in reproduction and growth by which a cell divides to form daughter cells
chromosome pieces of DNA wrapped together into oneare formed; repairs and replaces cells and tissues
mitosis pieces of DNA wrapped together into one
chromatids cell division in eukaryotes cells; process of placing copied DNA into two different nuclei: divide four phases: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase
cytokinesis one of two identical "sister" parts of a duplicated chromosome
cell cycle a cell's lifespan from when it is first formed to when it divides
interphase a stage of the cell cycle, cell division
chromatin the DNA inside the nucleus; looks dense
centromere chromosome with two arms coming from a centralized area
cell cycle series of event that cells go through as they grow and divide
interphase cell grows and replicates its DNA and centrioles
prophase chromatin condenses into chromosomes. the centrioles separate, and a spindle begins to form. nuclear envelope breaks down
metaphase chromosome line up across center of cell and the all connected to spindle fiber at its centromere
anaphase sister chromatids separate into individual chromosomes and are moved apart
telophase chromosome gather at opposite ends of cell and lose their distinct shapes. two new nuclear envelopes will form.
centrioles two tiny structures located in the cytoplasm near nuclear envelope sides of nucleus
spindle fanlike microtubule structure that helps separate chromatids into chromosomes
cancer a tumor in which the cells begin dividing at an uncontrolled rate and become invasive
