- 3. a membrane-bound cell organelle
- 6. A cell that is the source of other cells, as a cell that divides to produce two or more
- 11. The stage of meiotic or mitotic cell division in which the chromosomes move away from one another to opposite poles of the spindle.
- 12. Is a type of cell division that results in two daughter cells each having the same number and kind of chromosomes as the parent nucleus, typical of ordinary tissue growth.
- 16. the "power house" of the cell breaks down food to make energy for the cell
- 19. makes food for the plant cell
- 20. The second stage of cell division, between pro phase and anaphase, during which the chromosomes become attached to the spindle fibers.
- 21. digestion and waste removel
Down
- 1. Preparation for cell division
- 2. Is a series of events that takes place in a cell as it grows and divides.
- 4. Cells that result from the division of a single parent cell.
- 5. The resting phase between successive mitosis divisions of a cell, or between the first and second divisions of meiosis
- 7. Nucleic acids and protein found in the nucleus of most living cells, carrying genetic information in the form of genes.
- 8. Growth and cellular functions; organelle replication
- 9. The spindle fibers begin to dissaper.The chromosomes begin to uncoil
- 10. A self-replicating material that is present in nearly all living organisms
- 13. The cytoplasmic division of a cell at the end of mitosis or meiosis, bringing about the separation into two daughter cells.
- 14. Every living thing has one or more
- 15. The first stage of cell division, before meta phase, during which the chromosomes become visible as paired chromatic and the nuclear envelope disappears. The first prophase of meiosis includes the reduction division.
- 17. is the liquid that fills the inside of a cell.
- 18. The control center for the cell
