Cell Cycle & Mitosis

intro to cell cycle and mitosis

QuestionAnswer
disease caused by uncontrolled cell growth and division cancer
phase made up of G1, S, G2 interphase
phase(s) where cell is growing G1 and G2 phase
phase where DNA is copied S phase
division of the cytoplasm into 2 separate cells cytokinesis
phase where cell is not dividing or preparing to divide G0
when DNA condenses into the shape of letter "X" chromosome
cell organelle that holds DNA (genetic info) nucleus
1st stage of mitosis ; chromatin forms chromosomes prophase
2nd stage of mitosis ; chromosomes move to the center single file metaphase
3rd stage of mitosis ; chromosomes split to opposite poles inside cell anaphase
4th stage of mitosis ; you can almost see 2 cells [cleavage furrow or cell plate forms] telophase
the pair that helps the cell divide during mitosis (moves chromosomes) centrioles
center of a chromosome ; where spindle fiber attaches to move chromosome around during cell division centromere
process that makes genetically different cells meiosis
number of cells made by meiosis 4
number of cells made by mitosis 2
mitosis is an example of this type of reproduction asexual (type of reproduction)
meiosis is an example of this type of reproduction sexual (type of reproduction)
the sharing of genetic info by chromosomes during prophase I crossing over
mitosis has this effect on genetic variation none (zero) effect
meiosis has this effect on genetic variation increasing effect
type of cells made by mitosis body cells
type of cells made by meiosis sex cells
number of checkpoints in the cell cycle 3
"strings" made by centrioles to move chromosomes around spindle fibers
the correct order of phases in mitosis P --> M --> A --> T
