Cell Cycle & Mitosis

2. Two sister chromatids are connected by a ________.
3. Sub-stage of Interphase. The cell is growing and replicating organelles.
7. What happens during synthesis in interphase.
11. A highly regulated membrane that separates the nucleus and cytoplasm in eukaryotic cells.
17. The longest phase of Mitosis with 3 sub-stages.
18. During this phase the nuclear envelope disappears and the chromatin condense to form chromosomes.
20. During metaphase what is connected to the centromeres aligning them to the equator.
21. Made of two sister chromatids held together by centromeres.
22. During this phase the spindle fibers pull the chromosomes apart to form sister chromatids.
23. Sub-stage of Interphase. DNA is being replicated and packaged for mitosis.

1. During metaphase the spindle fibers pull the chromosomes to the equator of the cell. The equator of the cell is also known as _______.
4. Specialized structures within cells which perform specific functions in order to keep the cell alive.
5. A chromosome is made of two ____________ connected by a centromere.
6. Sub-stage of Interphase. The cell is growing and synthesis of protein for Mitosis.
8. Organelle present in most eukaryotic cells containing genetic information (plural form).
9. During mitosis a mother cell creates two ____________.
10. During this phase the nucleus and nuclear envelope form, separating the sets of chromosomes.
12. The process which separates cells into daughter cells.
13. What houses the spindle fibers during metaphase.
14. What is the liquid that fills up the cells and helps support cells called?
15. Uncondensed form of Chromosomes.
16. During this phase the chromosomes are attached to spindle fibers and lined up to the equator of the cell.
19. Division of somatic cells in eukaryotic organisms.
