Across
- 3. a cell organelle that contains a centriole surrounded by spindle fibers
- 5. individual strans of DNA
- 6. chromatin condenses into individual chromosomes, nuclear envelope breaks up
- 9. cell splits into 2 new daughter cells
- 10. allows materials to move into, out of and through the cell
- 11. long continuous strands of tightly coiled DNA
- 14. for most of a cells lifetime, DNA excist as
Down
- 1. where most of a cells life cycle is spent
- 2. chromatids begin to uncoil into chromatin
- 4. this pulls apart chromosomes drawing them to opposite ends of the cell
- 5. spindle fibers attach to this so that DNA can break apart
- 7. each chromosome splits into 2 chromatids that seperate to oppisite ends of the cell
- 8. a replication process that allowa the cell to split into 2 identical daughter cells
- 12. spindle fibers line up chromosomes along the cell equator
- 13. this is inside the centromere connected to spindle fibers
