Across
  1. 1. process that controls steps of cell division to ensure cell duplicates
  2. 4. protein structures that form during cell division
  3. 7. where sister chromatids separate at the centromere pulled by spindle fibers to opposite poles of the cell
  4. 8. a condensed structure of DNA and proteins that carries genetic information
  5. 9. normal checkpoints fail leading to uncontrolled growth
  6. 12. parent cell divides into two identical daughter cells
  7. 13. the cell cycle stage where condensed chromosomes align perfectly along the center
  8. 15. cells dividing the cytoplasm
  9. 17. final stage in cytokinesis where two new nuclei form at opposite ends of the cell
  10. 18. resting phase
Down
  1. 2. cell increases in size and synthesizes
  2. 3. events where a cell grows duplicates its DNA abd divides into two
  3. 5. DNA replicated
  4. 6. cells divide rapidly and without regulation
  5. 8. damaging rapidly dividing cells
  6. 9. quality control gates
  7. 10. produces proteins needed for cell division
  8. 11. eliminating unwanted or damaged cells
  9. 14. cells make exact copys of its DNA
  10. 16. the longest phase of the cycle
