Across
- 3. Cell cycle stage that includes both mitosis and cytokinesis.
- 4. Stage of mitosis where the cytoplasm divides into two daughter cells.
- 7. Thread-like structures carrying genetic information and are often visible during prophase.
- 9. Stage where chromosomes separate and move to opposite poles.
- 10. DNA replication stage from 46 to 92 chromatids.
- 12. Formation of bulges in plasma membrane of dying cells.
- 13. Programmed cell death.
- 15. Main tumor suppressor gene.
- 17. Rapid cell division.
- 18. A mutated proto-oncogene that drives uncontrolled cell division.
- 21. DNA-protein complex that is seen during interphase.
- 23. Fragments from programmed cell death.
- 25. Stage where nuclear membrane disappears and spindle fibres form.
Down
- 1. Stage where chromosomes align in the middle of the equator.
- 2. A disc-like shape formed in the middle of a dividing plant cell.
- 5. Cell death due to injury or disease which causes the cell to swell up.
- 6. The stage where an initial checkpoint detects if the cell has grown correctly.
- 7. An indentation on the surface of animal cells during cytokinesis.
- 8. Enzymes involved in apoptosis.
- 11. Stage of mitosis where nuclei reform at the poles of the cell.
- 14. Process of a white blood cell that engulfs cells and digest its content.
