| A | B |
| Cell cycle | lifespan of cell; growth & develop |
| Two parts of the cell cycle | Interphase, Mitosis |
| Interphase | normal cell function: G1, S, G2 |
| Mitosis | process of cell division |
| S phase; synthesis | when DNA is replicated |
| G1 | a baby cell grows up to adult |
| G2 | cell prepares to undergo mitosis |
| Prophase | DNA 1st becomes visible |
| Metaphase | chromosomes line up at middle |
| Anaphase | chromosomes pull apart |
| Telophase | chromatids far apart |
| Cytokinesis | when cell actually splits into two |
| Chromosome | looks like "X" |
| Centromere | holds two chromatids together |
| Chromatid | half of a chromosome |
| Cancer | uncontrolled cell cycle/cell growth |
| Diploid (2n) definition | 2 copies of each chromosome |
| haploid (n) definition | 1 copy of each chromosome |
| Math: 2n = 50 | n = 25 |
| Math: 2n = 46 | n = 23 |
| Math: n = 10 | 2n = 20 |
| Math: n = 15 | 2n = 30 |
