Cellular reproduction and mitosis
Across
- 2. when DNA makes a copy of itself
- 3. asexual reproduction, used by prokaryotes, when cell divides into two identical cells
- 5. cell structure that joins the two sister chromatids
- 7. Cell plate forms, dividing the daughter cells in ____cells
- 8. DNA replication, cytoplasm duplicates
- 10. cell
- 14. Cleavage furrow forms at the equator in _____ cells
- 15. also known as mitosis, is divided into 5 stages
- 17. Two important processes in cellular reproduction
- 18. help give structure to the chromosome
- 19. the process of cellular reproduction, occurring in three main stages
- 21. spindles attach to chromosomes
- 22. when a cell duplicates itself and then divides to get multiple identical cells
- 23. spindles disappear, sister chromosomes go to each pole
Down
- 1. sister chromatids separate, cytokinesis begins
- 4. Chromosomes align at the equator,
- 6. type of cell division that results when daughter cells have all the same features as the
- 9. contains identical DNA copies and is formed during DNA replication
- 11. what the chromosome is made of, made up of proteins, RNA and DNA
- 12. Mitosis results in _____ daughter cells
- 13. repeating subunits of chromatin fibers, consisting of DNA coiled around histones
- 16. thread-like structures found in the nucleus of plants and animals
- 20. chromosomes start to condense, spindles start to form
