15
Q

Made up of 2 chromatids connected by a centromere

A

Chromosome

16
Q

The spot on the centromere where the spindle fiber attaches

A

Kinetechore

17
Q

DNA is copied

A

Synthesis

18
Q

Chromatin scrunches into chromosomes; centromere and spindle fibers appear to pull the chromosomes

A

Prophase

19
Q

What disappears during prophase?

A

Nucleolus and nuclear membrane

20
Q

Chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell

A

Metaphase

21
Q

the chromatid arms separate and move to opposite ends of the cell

A

Anaphase

22
Q

same size and the same shape and carry genes for the same traits but are NOT identical.

A

Homologous

23
Q

The region near the nucleus where the centrioles are found that helps organize the spindle fibers during cell division

A

Centrosome

24
Q

log-like structures that appear near the nucleus during cell division in an animal cell and move to opposite poles to pull the chromosomes apart.

A

Centrioles

25
Q

Made of microtubules and connect each chromosome to the centrioles

A

Spindle fiber

26
Q

The family of proteins that regulate the cell cycle in eukaryotic cells

A

Cyclins

27
Q

When DNA and its attached proteins is spread out in the nucleus of non-dividing cells

A

Chromatin

28
Q

When chromatin is scrunched up in dividing cells

A

Chromosomes

29
Q

the process that a cell undergoes as it becomes specialized to perform very specific functions in the body.

A

Differentiation

30
Q

Cell death

A

Apoptosis

31
Q

Cell grows in preparation for cell division

A

G2

32
Q

Cells are alive and metabolically active but do not divide; cannot be replaced when damaged

A

G0

33
Q

Division of the cytoplasm

A

Cytokinesis

34
Q

What is the product if a cell undergoes nuclear division but not cytoplasmic division

A

Binucleate
