Across
- 1. chromosome a chromosome that consists of two sister chromatids
- 4. chromatids two halves of a chromosome that have the same genetic information
- 5. carry out functions
- 7. Centrioles start pulling on the spindle fibers to pull the sister chromatids apart
- 8. phase a repeated pattern of growth, DNA duplication, and cell division that occurs in eukaryotic cells
- 10. gametes
- 13. The chromosomes condense and become sister chromatids, the centrioles migrate to opposite poles of the cell.
- 14. divide nucleus
- 17. develop into cells with a specialized function.
- 18. phase undergo DNA replication
- 19. a loose form of DNA
- 20. fibers special proteins that move chromosomes during mitosis
- 21. the spot that connects two sister chromatids
Down
- 2. the growth phase
- 3. Sister chromatids move toward the middle
- 6. divide cytoplasm
- 9. The nuclear membrane forms around each new set of chromosomes
- 11. a highly condensed (packed) form of DNA
- 12. prepare for division
- 15. the cell membrane pinches
- 16. cells the cells of multicellular organisms lack specialized functions
- 18. body cells
- 19. organelles that make spindle fibers
