Unit 4 Flashcards
What is produced by cells and sent to other cells to control growth?
Growth factors
What do Cyclins do?
They help to regulate the cell cycle through cyclin-dependent kinases.
What is metaphase?
When the centrosome makes spindle fibers attach to the chromosomes.
What is interphase
The phase where the cell prepares for division but is mostly normal. It spends most of its life in this stage.
What is prophase?
When the centrosomes begin to grow outwards and the DNA condenses into chromosomes.
What is pro metaphase?
When the chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell
What is anaphase?
When the chromasomes get pulled apart.
What is telophase.
Telophase is when the cell begins to separate and the nucleus reforms.
What is cytokinesis?
When the cell splits completely.
