The Cell Cycle, Cell Cycle Latest Update
100% Correct
cytokinesis ✔✔Complete cytoplasmic separation of the 2 new cells resulting from mitosis.
mitosis ✔✔The process of NUCLEAR division
interphase ✔✔Period of time where a cell carries out cell processes and replicates DNA prior to cell division
prophase ✔✔Chromatin condenses into chromosomes
metaphase ✔✔Chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell
anaphase ✔✔Sister chromatids separate
telophase ✔✔new nuclei begin to reform, chromatids relax
chromatid ✔✔Each half of the chromosome
chromosome ✔✔condensed chromatin; contains DNA that carries genetic information
centromere ✔✔attachment site of sister chromatids
cell cycle ✔✔An ordered sequence of events in the life of a eukaryotic cell; process of growth and division.
G1 phase ✔✔interphase stage of cell cycle where cell grows and carries out metabolic processes
G2 phase ✔✔interphase stage prepares to divide by copying organelles and producing proteins necessary for division
S phase ✔✔interphase stage of cell cycle where cell replicates DNA
stage of the cell cycle where the nucleus divides ✔✔mitosis
Prophase diagram ✔✔Identify the stage using the diagram.
Metaphase diagram ✔✔Identify the stage using the diagram.
Anaphase diagram ✔✔Identify the stage using the diagram.
Telophase diagram ✔✔Identify the stage using the diagram.
Cytokinesis diagram ✔✔Identify the stage using the diagram.
Centriole ✔✔organelle of animal cell that aids in cell division
Spindle fiber ✔✔microtubule threads that emerge from centrioles, attach to chromosomes to pull them apart during mitosis
reasons for mitosis ✔✔divides cells that are too large, replaces damaged/dying cells, allows for growth
Cleavage furrow ✔✔a pinching of the cell membrane that begins to form in telophase
cell plate ✔✔method of plant cell division; formation of a new cell wall instead of cleavage furrow
Cyclins and Checkpoints ✔✔Regulation system for the cell cycle
Cyclins ✔✔Signal each stage of the cell cycle to begin
Carcinogens ✔✔cancer causing factors (tobacco, chemicals, UV radiation)
steps of mitosis ✔✔PMAT
steps of interphase ✔✔G1, S, G
apoptosis ✔✔programmed cell death
end product of the cell cycle ✔✔2 identical daughter cells
