What are the 2 reasons cells divide rather growing to a larger size?
What are the differences between prokaryotic & eukaryotic cells regarding cell division?
Since the cell can not get larger, what does it do?
How do organisms grow? (Example: an adult and a baby…who has bigger cells?...who
has more cells?)
5. What are the 3 stages of the cell cycle?
6. What are the 3 stages of interphase?
7. Describe what happens in each
8. Draw a picture of a chromosome and label the sister chromatids & centromere.
9. What is the longest phase of mitosis?
10.
Compared to mitosis, is interphase a long or short phase in the cell cycle?
11.
What are chromosomes made up of?
12.
Explain how the centrioles and spindle help the cell divide.
13.
What are the FOUR stages of mitosis?
14.
What is cytokinesis?
15.
Does this protein trigger cell division or does it stop cell division?

any others you choose to add: chromosomes, 2 daughter cells, 4 daughter cells,
diploid, haploid, 2N, 1N, eggs, sperm, identical, different, homologous chromosomes
match up, DNA replication, 1 cell division, 2 sets of cell divisions, crossing over, and
tetrads.
