Cell division is vital for all

Cell division always involves ________ main processes:

What is an example of an organism produced by vegetative reproduction?

In sexual reproduction, cell division is required to make gametes like sperm and eggs.

In sexual reproduction, cell division is required to allow the multiple divisions needed to create a unicellular organism.

To reach adult size many organisms have to perform cell division once after all essential body parts have formed.

Repair and maintenance are used in multicellular organisms.

Growth and development are found in unicellular organisms.

To create identical daughter cells, this type of cell division must involve DNA replication and a process called

What represents the processes that occur between one cell division and the next cell division in a cell's life?

What is not a main stage of the cell cycle?

The cell spends most of its life here performing its specialized functions and then prepares for cell division when the time comes.

Which phase is where the cell grows after division to reach full size (it may double in size).

Which phase is the longest part of the cell cycle for most cells except for fast dividing cells?

What are examples of fast dividing cells?

In what phase do some cells never divide and stop progressing through the cell cycle?

Which is not an example of a cell in G0 Phase?

What phase is DNA replicated creating two identical copies of each chromosome and the centriole pair also duplicates?

What phase does the cell prepare for mitosis by undergoing rapid growth of its cytoplasm?

The cell increases the synthesis of __________________ needed to make the ________________ used in mitosis.

What occurs if replication errors are left undetected and unfixed before mitosis?

Humans have ______ chromosomes in their somatic cells.

How many main stages does mitosis break down into?

What is the process that divides the cytoplasm in half to create two separate daughter cells?

In animal cells, a _______________ forms to constrict the cell membrane in the middle of the cell and divide it.

In plant cells, the _____________ makes cytokinesis more challenging.

Instead of making a cleavage furrow, a plant cell makes a _____________ in the middle of the cell.

The cell plate is made up of ______________ which contain the material needed to build the cell wall.

In G2 phase the DNA has not condensed which means it is still ___________ and _____________.

What is the long thread-like form of DNA called?

What are the two identical sides of each duplicated chromosome called?

The two sister chromatids are connected together at a region of the chromosome called the

The centromere is where protein structures called ____________ assemble on either side of the sister chromatids.

What are the proteins filaments that serve various different functions within a cell called?

When microtubules are used in in mitosis or meiosis, they can specifically referred to as

Centrosomes are found in plant and animal cells.

In what phase do centrosomes begin to migrate to opposite poles?

In what phase do spindle fibers being to form between the two centrosomes?

In what phase does the nuclear membrane begin to dissolve?

In what phase does the chromatin begin to condense and become shorter, thicker, and visible?

In what phase does the nucleolus begin to disappear?

In what phase does the nuclear membrane almost completely dissolve which allows the spindle fibers access to the duplicated chromosomes?

In what phase has the nucleolus fully disappear?

In what phase does the kinetochore spindle fibers reach through the dissolving nuclear membrane and attach to the kinetochores of each duplicated chromosome?

In what phase does the equatorial plate appear?

All of the different types of spindle fibers help form a network of fibers called the

In what phase are the centrosomes fully migrated to opposite poles?

In what phase is the spindle apparatus completely formed?

In what phase is the nuclear membrane fully dissolved?

In what phase have the spindle fibers lined up the duplicated chromosomes along the equatorial plate so that each sister chromatid of a duplicated chromosome faces opposite poles?

In what phase are the chromosomes thick, short, and at their most condensed?

Chromosomes photographed for ________________ are taken during metaphase because it is easy to obtain images of the chromosomes

In what phase does each chromatid become its own chromosome once separation has occurred?

In what phase do the kinetochore spindle fibers shorten and pull the attached sister chromatids apart at the centromere towards opposite poles?

In what phase do the polar spindle fibers push against each other to elongate the cell and further separate the sister chromatids?

_________________ is the phase where essentially the reverse of prophase occurs?

In what phase does the spindle apparatus begin to disassemble?

In what phase do the chromosomes become long and thin by decondensing and reverting back to their chromatin structure?

In what phase does the nuclear membrane begin to reform around each set of chromosomes?

In what phase does the nucleolus reappear in each nucleus?

In what phase does a cleavage furrow (or cell plate in plant cells) begin to form which signals the beginning of cytokinesis which will separate the two new daughter cells?
