in this stage of mitosis the division of the cytoplasm into two cells occurs

cytokinesis

in an animal cell the first sign of cytokinesis is the

cleavage furrow

is in insde of cell

regulate the cell cycle

regulates the cell cycle

chemical checkpoints

tumor is an

abnormal mass of tissue

cells of a _____ divide out of control

tumor

tumors are either

benign or malignant

benign

sterol


non harmful

malignant

these cells can seed new tumors throughout the body

sheath of connective tissue keeps tumor from spreading in

benign cells

genes and enviornment

increase cancer risk

reproduction occurs in

asexual and sexual

asexual reproduction

-genetically identical offspring


-replicates dna and splits contents of one cell into two


sexual reproduction

-two parents


-genetically different


-genetic diversity



sex is costly because

attracting a mate and producing sex cells is costly

diploid cells contain

two homologous pairs of chromosomes

these contain two homologous pairs of chromosomes

diploid cells

most cells in sexually reproducint organisms have

two sets of chromosomes -father and mother

humans have __ chromosomes

46

cells that contain two sets of chromosomes are called

diploid

the numered chromosomes which are the same for both sexes are

autosomes

autosomes

are numbered chromosomes


-are the same for both sexes

chromosomes denoted by a letter are

sex chromosomes

xx xy or intersex

intersex
