Across
  1. 5. A complex chromosome in eukaryotic cells that form a close association with histones.
  2. 6. During this phase, the chromosomes separate and move along spindle fibers to opposite ends of the cells
  3. 8. A structural unit of a eukaryotic chromosome, consisting of a length of DNA coiled around a core of histones
  4. 11. Contains four stages, this is the process of cell division by which the nucleus divides, ending with cytokinesis
  5. 12. Many of the organelles and molecules required for cell division are produced
  6. 14. The process of cell in prokaryotes is a form of asexual reproduction
  7. 17. New DNA is synthesized when chromosomes are replicated
  8. 19. Process of programmed cell death
  9. 20. The type of reproduction involving 2 parents
Down
  1. 1. During this phase, the chromosomes, which were distinct and condensed, begin to spread out into a tangle of chromatids
  2. 2. When cancer cells divide uncontrollably to form a mass of cells.
  3. 3. This completes the process of cell division, splitting one cell into two
  4. 4. Cells increase in size and synthesize new proteins and organelles
  5. 7. The process in which a cell divides into 2 new daughter cells
  6. 9. They contain genetic information, the "recipe" for the body in the form of DNA
  7. 10. During this phase, the centromeres of the duplicated chromosomes line up across the center of the cell
  8. 13. The genetic material inside the nucleus condenses and the duplicated chromosomes become visible
  9. 15. Separation by an “in-between” period of growth
  10. 16. A disorder in which body cells lose the ability to control cell growth.
  11. 18. The type of reproduction involving 1 parent
