cell divison

The normal functional state of a cell not dividing

True or false? Meiosis is the mechanism by which eggs and sperm cells are produced

If a cell undergoing mitosis normally has 46 chromosomes, how many chromosomes will each of the daughter cells have?

type of microtubules that expand to opposite poles and lengthen the cell. These microtubules oriented parallel to each other but in opposing directions, and are crucial for pushing the centrosome and spindle apparatus apart

centrosomes/centrioles begin to separate and move toward opposite ends of the cell and produce the mitotic spindle

stage of interphase when DNA is replicated. The two strands of the DNA helix separate and become the template for the new complimentary___________

a somatic cell undergoes ________ and results in 2 genetically __________ cells.

stage of interphase where the cell prepares for replication by producing all the enzymes required for DNA replication and duplicates most of its organelles is called

Devoted to last minute protein synthesis as cell prepares to divide.

Help organize mitotic spindle used in cell division

Phase of interphase where some cells go temporarily and other never leave. The cells that enter this phase are considered to be in their normal functioning state. Muscle and nerve cells are an example of these.

Sister chromatids separate and chromosomes move to opposite poles of cell

Chromatin shortens and coils into chromosomes, nucleoli and nuclear envelope disappear. A centrosome and its centrioles move to opposite poles, and mitotic spindles from.

Stage of interphase that is devoted to last minute protein synthesis as cell prepares to divide.

Nuclear envelope reappears and encloses chromosomes, chromosomes resume chromatin form, nucleoli reappear, and mitotic spindle disappears.

the ___________ is a molecular motor on each side of the centromere

Cell prepares for replication. Cell produces all the enzymes required for DNA replication and duplicates most of its organelles

When S phase is finished the original DNA molecule has become two identical DNA molecules that are attached together at the ____________ and are now known as sister _________

In this mitotic phase, chromotin condense to form chromosomes

During prophase chromatids are held together at a region called the

true or false? Mitosis produces 4 daughter cells identical to the parent cells

Name of the test to identify and evaluate the size, shape, and number of chromosomes in a body cell.

True or false? Every somatic cell in the human body has a total of 46 genes

Certain viruses carry genes called _____ that can cause cancer.

type of microtubules that are short and are attached to the cell membrane/cytoskeleton and anchor the centrosomes into position

What is the correct sequence of the cell cycle beginning with interphase is:

DNA is replicated and become double stranded. The replicated chromosome are attached together at the centromere and are known as sister chromatids. Each is an exact copy of the other and is called a chromatid.

The nucleoil and nuclear membrane disappear

Cleavage furrow forms around the center of cell, progresses inward, and separates cytoplasm into two separate and usually equal portions.

Centromers separate and chromosomes begin migration toward opposite poles of the cell

HPV stands for______ and is a virus that Virus produces a protein that causes proteasomes to destroy the p53 protein.

Nuclear membrane and nucleoli reappear

Chromosomes align on the equatorial plate of the cell

The cell membrane constricts along the plane of the center plate forming a cleavage furrow. Cytoplasm divides resulting in two daughter cells each with DNA that is identical to the DNA of the parent cell

The phase in which the cell is preparing for division
