Cell Cycle

3. the beginning processes of cell division
6. disorder in the body in which some of the cells lose control of the cell cycle
9. stage of interphase in which the cell grows and performs its normal functions
11. a mass of rapidly dividing cells that can damage surrounding tissue
13. wound up DNA, preparing to be split into 2 cells
14. regulates the cell cycle
16. Chromatids identical copies of chromosomes
17. stage of interphase in which cell duplicates its cytosol and organelles

1. division of cytoplasm, organelles, and DNA cutting a cell into 2 identical cells
2. developing state of a multicellular organism
4. the synthesis phase of the cell cycle
5. unspecialized cells that are able to renew themselves for long periods of time by cell division
7. region of a chromosome where two sister chromatids are attached
8. programmed cell death
10. clusters of DNA, RNA, and proteins in the nucleus of a cell
12. process by which a cell divides into 2 daughter cells
13. series of events all cells go through as they grow, divide and do their job
15. a mass of cells that remains at its original site in the body but does not damage the surrounding cells
17. factors that stimulate the cell to divide
