Across
- 3. the division of a cell into two daughter cells with the same genetic material.
- 4. Chromosomes that have the same sequence of genes and the same structure
- 6. A form of asexual reproduction in single-celled organisms by which one cell divides into two cells of the same size
- 9. Chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell
- 12. The "in between" period of growth, longest stage of the cell cycle.
- 13. Identical copies of a chromosome; full sets of these are created during the S subphase of interphase.
- 17. Process by which a single parent reproduces by itself
- 18. Chromosomes arrive at the poles of the cell and begin to relax; two nuclear membranes begin to form and spindle apparatus disassemble
- 19. division of the cytoplasm
- 20. a tumor that is not cancerous
Down
- 1. the two new cells that result from mitosis and cytokinesis
- 2. part of eukaryotic cell division during which the cell nucleus divides
- 5. A cancerous tumor that is invasive enough to impair the functions of one or more organs.
- 7. Cell division that produces reproductive cells in sexually reproducing organisms
- 8. the cell giving rise to daughter cells by cell division
- 10. Chromosomes become visible, nuclear envelop dissolves, spindle forms
- 11. Process in sexual reproduction in which male and female reproductive cells join to form a new cell
- 14. Phase of mitosis in which the chromosomes separate and move to opposite ends of the cell
- 15. (genetics) an organism or cell having only one complete set of chromosomes
- 16. (genetics) an organism or cell having two sets of chromosomes or twice the haploid number
