Cell Cycle

First stage of the cell cycle, during which a cell grows, matures, and replicates its DNA

• anaphase

• cytokinesis

• mitosis

• interphase

Structure that contains identical DNA copies and is formed during DNA replication.

• chromosome

• sister chromatid

• chromatin

• carcinogen

Second main stage of the cell cycle during which the cell's replicated DNA divides and two genetically identical diploid daughter cells are produced.

• mitosis

• interphase

• cytokinesis

• metaphase
