Across
  1. 4. the growth phase
  2. 5. special proteins that move chromosomes during mitosis
  3. 7. a repeated pattern of growth, DNA duplication, and cell division that occurs in eukaryotic cells
  4. 8. a chromosome that consists of two sister chromatids
  5. 11. carry out functions
  6. 13. the spot that connects two sister chromatids
  7. 14. a loose form of DNA
  8. 15. undergo DNA replication
  9. 16. body cells
  10. 19. divide nucleus
  11. 21. the cells of multicellular organisms lack specialized functions
  12. 22. two halves of a chromosome that have the same genetic information
Down
  1. 1. organelles that make spindle fibers
  2. 2. prepare for division
  3. 3. Sister chromatids move toward the middle
  4. 6. gametes
  5. 8. develop into cells with a specialized function.
  6. 9. divide cytoplasm
  7. 10. the cell membrane pinches
  8. 12. The chromosomes condense and become sister chromatids, the centrioles migrate to opposite poles of the cell.
  9. 17. a highly condensed (packed) form of DNA
  10. 18. Centrioles start pulling on the spindle fibers to pull the sister chromatids apart
  11. 20. The nuclear membrane forms around each new set of chromosomes
