binary fission
The process by which bacterial cells divide.
cancer
occurs when the cell cycle is no longer regulated.
cell cycle
a repeating series of events that describes the life of a cell.
mitosis
the process in which the nucleus of the cell divides.
cytokinesis
division of the cytoplasm, resulting in two daughter cells.
DNA replication
the process in which all of the nuclear DNA is copied.
growth Phase 1
phase of the cell cycle in which the cell grows rapidly and performs many metabolic processes.
growth Phase 2
phase of the cell cycle in which the cell makes final preparations to divide.
interphase
phase of the cell cycle that includes the G1, S, and G2 phases.
cell division
the process in which one cell divides to form two daughter cells.
synthesis phase
phase of the cell cycle in which the cell's DNA is copied.
tumor
an abnormal mass of cells.
