Chapter 10 Vocab Flashcards
Prophase
Longest, chromosome condense, centroids move to opposite sides, spindle fibers form,
Mitosis
The division of the cells nucleus
Anaphase
Spindle contracts, centermere and sister chromatids split, chromosomes pull apart
Metaphase
Chromosomes line up, spindles become visible, spindle attaches to centimeters
Telophase
Chromosomes disappear, two nuclear membranes form, nucleolus forms
Interphase
In between period of growth
Cell division
Before the cell gets to big it divides into two sister cells
Cell cycle
Series of event cells go through as they grow and divide
Cancer
Body cells loose ability to control growth
Centriole
Structures located in cytoplasm near the nuclear envelope
Centromere
Chromatids are attached to chromosomes
Chromatid
One sister part
Cyclin
Proteins that regulate cell cycle
Cytokinesis
Divided cytoplasm, two cell walls on plants
Spindle
Helps seperate chromosomes
