---|---|---|---|---|---|
mitosis | division of the nucleus
🗑

||||
cytokinesis | division of the cytoplasm
🗑
|
||||
chromatid | one of two identical "sister" parts of a duplicated chromosome
🗑
|
||||
centromere | area where the chromatids of a chromosome are attached
🗑
|
||||
interphase | period of the cell cycle between cell divisions; when the cell is preparing to divide
🗑
|
||||
cell cycle | series of events that cells go through as they grow and divide
🗑
|
||||
prophase | first and longest phase of mitosis, during which the chromosomes become visible and the centrioles separate and take up positions on the opposite sides of the nucleus
🗑
|
||||
centriole | paired organelle found near the nucleus that is involved in the development of spindle fibers during cell division
🗑
|
||||
metaphase | second phase of cell division, during which the chromosomes line up across the center of the cell
🗑
|
||||
anaphase | the third phase of mitosis, during which the chromosome pairs separate and move toward opposite poles
🗑
|
||||
telophase | fourth and final phase of mitosis, during which the chromosomes begin to disperse into a tangle of dense material
🗑
|
||||
cyclin | proteins that regulate the cell cycle in eukaryotic cells
🗑
|
||||
cancer | disorder in which some of the body's own cells lose the ability to control growth
🗑
|
||||
chromatin | granular material visible within the nucleus; consists of DNA tightly coiled around proteins
🗑
|
||||
chromosome | threadlike structure within the nucleus containing the genetic information that is passed from one generation of cells to the next
🗑

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
To hide a column, click on the column name.
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
