Across
  1. 2. one of two identical halves of a replicated chromosome
  2. 5. number of daughter cells made in mitosis
  3. 7. process where a cell changes from one cell type to another.
  4. 9. reproduction produces exact copies of offspring - one parent cell
  5. 10. undifferentiated biological cells that can be specialized
  6. 12. two nuclei are formed in opposite ends of the cell
  7. 14. makes up chromosomes
  8. 16. division and spread of abnormal cells
  9. 18. division of cells resulting in exact copies
  10. 19. point on a chromosome where spindle fibers attach
  11. 20. cells with full number of chromosomes
  12. 22. first stage of cell division. Chromosomes pair with chromatids
Down
  1. 1. carries genetic information
  2. 3. division of cytoplasm
  3. 4. reproduction produces similar copies of offspring - two parent cells
  4. 6. spindle fibers retract, separating chromosomes (Away)
  5. 8. death of a cell that occurs normally
  6. 11. second stage of cell division where chromosomes attach to spindle fibers. (middle)
  7. 13. number of daughter cells made in meiosis
  8. 14. causes growth, repairs, and reproduction
  9. 15. cells with half number of chromosomes
  10. 17. send out spindle fibers during cell division
  11. 21. when a cell grows
