Flashcards

Cell Cycle

The process cells go through to divide and reproduce, consisting of stages: G1, S, G2, M.

Spindle Fibers

Protein structures that help separate chromosomes during cell division.

Chromosome Doubling

In certain stages, the number of chromosomes in a cell increases as it prepares for division.

Nuclear Envelope Breakdown

The process where the nuclear envelope disintegrates during cell division, allowing chromosomes to migrate.
