  1. 2. One of the identical rods of Chromosome
  2. 4. A mass of abnormal cells that develops when cancerous cells divide and grow uncontrollably
  3. 5. The stage of the cell cycle that takes place before cell division occurs; during this stage, the cell grows, copies its DNA, and prepares to divide.
  4. 7. The process by which a cell makes a copy of the DNA in its Nucleus.
  5. 9. This stage of the cell cycle during which the cell's Nucleus divides into two new Nuclei and one copy of the DNA is distributed into each daughter cell.
  6. 11. The final stage of the cell cycle in which the cell's cytoplasm divides, distributing the organelles into each of the two new cells
  7. 15. The use of drugs to kill cancer cells.
  8. 16. An organism that makes its own food

  1. 1. A colored chemical compound that absorbs light
  2. 3. An organism that cannot make its own food.
  3. 6. The Process by which plants and some other organisms capture the energy in sunlight and use it to make food.
  4. 7. The process by which cells break down simple food molecules to release the energy they contain.
  5. 8. The regular sequence of growth and division that cells undergo
  6. 10. Small openings on the underside of a leaf through which oxygen and carbon dioxide can move
  7. 11. A double rod of condensed chromatin; contains DNA that carries genetic information.
  8. 12. The process by which cells break down molecules to release energy without using oxygen
  9. 13. A disease in which somebody's cells grow and divide uncontrollably, damaging the parts of the body around them.
  10. 14. A change in a gene or chromosome
  11. 15. A green pigment found in the Chloroplasts of plants, algae, and some bacteria.
