Cell Cycle

Failure of this stage prior to mitosis would result in daughter cells without sufficient DNA

• S-phase
• Gap 1
• cytokinesis
• anaphase

An abnormal mass of cancer cells is called a 

• tumor
• cyst
• lesion
• polyp

Cancer creates abnormal cells by disrupting

• the cell cycle
• red blood cell formation
• DNA replication
• ATP synthesis

What is Apoptosis?

• Cell programmed Death

• Inflammation of cell

• Phagocytosis

• Plasmolysis

Why would it be important to replicate DNA before a cell divides in mitosis or meiosis?

• In order for genetic information to be transferred into daughter cells.
• In order for the cell to be able to increase in size.
• In order for the DNA to be contained in the nucleus.
• In order for the cell to re-order the DNA sequencing in the new cells.

The time between cell divisions in the life cycle of the cell is called

• anaphase
• interphase
• prophase
• metaphase

What is a series of events a cell goes through as they grow and divide?

• Cell Division
• Cell Cycle
• Cytokinesis
• Mitosis

What is the longest stage of the cell cycle called?

• Cytokinesis
• M phase
• Interphase
• G1 Phase

During what stage does the G₁, S and G₂ phases happen?

• Interphase
• M phase
• Mitosis
• Cytokinesis

During which stage of the cell cycle does mitosis and cytokinesis occur?

• Interphase
• S phase
• M phase
• G1 phase
