cell division--the division of a cell in reproduction or growth. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VhkQP5g4EHo&NR=1
chromatid--one of two identical chromosomal strands into which a chromosome splits longitudinally preparatory to cell division.
centromere--a specialized structure on the chromosome, appearing during cell division as the constricted central region where the two chromatids are held together and form an X shape.
interphase--the period of the cell cycle during which the nucleus is not undergoing division, typically occurring between mitotic or meiotic divisions.
cell cycle--the usual method of cell division, characterized typically by the resolving of the chromatin of the nucleus into a threadlike form, which condenses into chromosomes, each of which separates longitudinally into two parts, one part of each chromosome being retained in each of two new cells resulting from the original cell. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JmiSg_bEv6I&feature=related
prophase--the first stage of mitosis or meiosis in eukaryotic cell division, during which the nuclear envelope breaks down and strands of chromatin form into chromosomes.
centriole--a small, cylindrical cell organelle, seen near the nucleus in the cytoplasm of most eukaryotic cells, that divides in perpendicular fashion during mitosis, the new pair of centrioles moving ahead of the spindle to opposite poles of the cell as the cell divides: identical in internal structure to a basal body.
spindle--shaped structure, composed of microtubules, that forms near the cell nucleus during mitosis or meiosis and, as it divides, draws the chromosomes to opposite poles of the cell.
metaphase--the stage in mitosis or meiosis in which the duplicated chromosomes line up along the equatorial plate of the spindle.
anaphase--the stage in mitosis or meiosis following metaphase in which the daughter chromosomes move away from each other to opposite ends of the cell.
telophase--the final stage of meiosis or mitosis, in which the separated chromosomes reach the opposite poles of the dividing cell and the nuclei of the daughter cells form around the two sets of chromosomes.
cytokinesis--the division of the cell cytoplasm that usually follows mitotic or meiotic division of the nucleus.
cyclin--A class of proteins that fluctuate in concentration at specific points during the cell cycle and that regulate the cycle by binding to a kinase.
cancer--any malignant growth or tumor caused by abnormal and uncontrolled cell division; it may spread to other parts of the body through the lymphatic system or the blood stream. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bDjDw18HJto&feature=related
