Across
  1. 5. DNA replication occurs here.
  2. 6. An identical copy of a chromosome, joined at the centromere.
  3. 10. Longest stage of the cell cycle
  4. 11. This is replicated during the synthesis phase
  5. 12. Sister chromatids separate and move to opposite poles.
  6. 13. Division of the cytoplasm, forming two daughter cells.
  7. 14. Cell grows and prepares for DNA synthesis.
  8. 15. Chromosomes decondense, nuclear envelopes reform.
Down
  1. 1. Cell prepares for mitosis.
  2. 2. phase, where the cell spits
  3. 3. Microtubule network that pulls chromosomes apart.
  4. 4. Chromatin condenses, nuclear envelope breaks down.
  5. 6. Uncontrolled cell division, often linked to cell cycle regulation failure.
  6. 7. Chromosomes line up at the cell's equator (middle).
  7. 8. The resting phase
  8. 9. Threadlike structures carrying genetic info.
  9. 14. Cell growth phases.
