Across
  1. 2. programmed cell death
  2. 4. cells that are able to grow in all derivatives
  3. 8. growth phase of the cell cycle
  4. 9. critical points with stop and go signals
  5. 12. formed by replication in S phase
  6. 14. the region of a chromosome to which the microtubules of the spindle attach
  7. 18. occurrs in pairs and involved in the development of spindle fibers
  8. 22. special deoxyribonucleic acid structures that are at the ends of chromosomes
  9. 23. nuclear membrane reforms around chromosome
  10. 24. the process by which cells become more specialized
  11. 25. chromosome condense and sister chromatids become visible
  12. 26. dna replication occurs
  13. 28. form a protein structure that divides the genetic material in a cell
  14. 30. to spread to other parts of the body by way of the blood
Down
  1. 1. the division of the cytoplasm into individual cells
  2. 3. cancer cells that break away from the tumor
  3. 5. uncontrolled cell division
  4. 6. seperates the nucleus from the cytoplasm
  5. 7. cell grows and makes proteins
  6. 9. made up of protein and dna organized into genes
  7. 10. the division phase of the cell cycle
  8. 11. undifferentiated cells that stay among differentiated cells in a tissue or organ
  9. 13. clumps of cells that divide uncontrollably
  10. 15. any change in dna
  11. 16. abnormal cells that typically remain clustered together
  12. 17. basic unit of heredity that occupies a specific place in a chromosome
  13. 19. contains genetic material in a cell
  14. 20. spindle fibers connect to the centromeres and line up in the middle of the cell
  15. 21. more cell growth and protein synthesis occurs
  16. 27. information is transferred from the cell surface to the nucleus
  17. 29. sister chromatids separate and pull away the individual chromosomes and move to the opposite sides of the cell
