Why is cell division advantageous to the cell?

Cell division allows for cell specilization.

Identify the stages of the cell cycle

Interphase and cell division

Identify the stages of interphase

G1, S, G2

Identify the stages of mitosis

Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telaphase (PMAT)

How does the cell control division and why is this important?

Cell division is controlled by regulatory protiens, they are important because if cells divided out of control it could result in cancer.

How do cancer cells spread?

Cancer cells spread through angiogenesis, growing cancer cells in the blood cells

Identify the stages of cell division

PMAT and Cytokinisis

Why is it bad for cells to be too large?

1. Living cells store critical information in DNA. As a cell grows, that information is used to build the molecules needed for cell growth. 2. A large cell's DNA may not be able to meet all of its information needs.3. A large cell also has trouble moving
