Mitosis
Across
- 5. What is formed in a plant cell instead of cytokinesis occurring
- 8. Growth phase that is shorter than G1 or S; phase when proteins responsible for cell division are synthesized; lasts about 3-4 hours
- 9. Chromosomes decondense, two nuclear membranes form, spindle fibers disappeare, cell starts to get cleavage furrow
- 11. Nuclear membrane breaks down, spindle fibers appear, and chromosomes condense
- 12. What the “G” in “G1” and “G2” phases stands for
- 13. Spindle fibers attach to chromosomes
Down
- 1. Forms in telophase as parent cell prepares for cytokinesis
- 2. When chromosomes are extended and in use during the G1, S, and G2 phases; takes about 18-20 hours
- 3. Phase of the Cell Cycle during which the cell makes preparations for and completes cell division; takes about 2 hours
- 4. What the “S” in “S Phase” stands for; phase when DNA is replicated; takes between 5-6 hours to complete
- 5. Cytoplasm is cleaved in half, parent cell becomes two daughter cells with identical genetic information
- 6. Centromeres divide and sister chromatids move to opposite poles
- 7. The amount of ______ present in a cell is a good indication of where a cell stands in the cell cycle.
- 10. Chromosomes condense align on equatorial plane
- 12. Typically the longest phase of Interphase; phase where proteins responsible for DNA replication are synthesized; lasts about 10 hours
