| What are the four phases of the cell cycle? | G1, S, G2, and M |
| Chromosomes are only visible when ___. | the cell is dividing |
| When the cell is most actively growing, it is in the ____ phase. | G1 |
| When DNA is replicating, the cell is in the ___ phase. | S |
| When the cell is preparing for mitosis, it is in the ____ phase. | G2 |
| When the cell is undergoing cell division, it is in the ___ phase. | M |
| In order, what are the five stages of mitosis? | Prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase (remember "I pinched pretty Martha's arm today" for interphase, prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. Interphase is NOT a stage of mitosis, but it does come before mitosis) |
| G1, S, and G2 all occur during ____. | interphase |
| Cell division ends when ___ is complete. | cytokinesis |
| The ____ is a series of events that cells go through as they grow and divide. | cell cycle |
| After chromosomes undergo DNA replication, they consist of two identical ____ that are attached to each other. | sister chromatids |
| During which stages of mitosis are sister chromatids attached to each other? | prophase, prometaphase and metaphase |
| During which stage of mitosis do sister chromatids start to separate? | anaphase |
| During which stage of mitosis are sister chromatids lined up along the center of the cell? | metaphase (think metaphase = middle) |
| During which stage of mitosis does the nuclear envelope break down? | prometaphase |
| During which stage of mitosis do the chromosomes condense to become visible? | prophase |
| The centrosome helps organize a fan-like group of protein fibers called the ____ that help pull the chromosomes apart. | spindle |
| The division of the cytoplasm itself is called ___. | cytokinesis |
| In plant cells, cytokinesis is accomplished with the formation of a ___ between the two new cells. | cell plate |
| During which stage of mitosis are the chromosomes divided into the two opposite ends of the cell and the nuclear membrane reforms? | telophase |
| The two main stages of cell division are ___. | mitosis and cytokinesis, 
|
| During which stage of mitosis does the nucleolus disappear? | prophase |
| During normal cell division, a human cell with 46 chromosomes would produce two daughter cells with ___ chromosomes each. | 46 |
The structures labeled A are,  | sister chromatids, |
| The structures labeled B are, | spindle fibers, |
| The structure labeled C is ____., | a centromere, |
| Uncontrolled cell division is also known as ______. | cancer |
| When cells divide over and over again because of cancer, a lump of cells called a ____ forms. | tumor |
| A ____ can cause the proteins that control cell division to malfunction, causing the cell to divide uncontrollably. | mutation in DNA |
| Cell division results in genetically identical ______ cells. | daughter |
| Another word for reproductive, or sex cells is ________. | gametes |
| Prokaryotes reproduce by a type of cell division called ____. | binary fission |
| A tumor that stays at its original site of growth is called a(n) _____ tumor. | benign |
| A tumor has impacted other tissues or organs (is invasive) and is capable of spreading is called a(n) ______ tumor. | malignant |
| The spread of cancer cells to locations distant from their original site of development is called _____. | metastasis |
