Mitosis and The Cell Cycle
The cell cycle is for cells to: Reproduce
Cells grow and: Divide
The cell cycle only happens in _____ cells: Eukaryote
The three main stages of the cell cycle are?

Interphase
Interphase has how many phases: Three
This is the stage where the cell is ______ into a mature cell: Growing
G1: The period right after the cell divides; preparing to replicate DNA
S (Synthesis): The cell copies its DNA for division
G2: The cell prepares for cell division and checks that everything is ready
Mitosis
Mitosis is the _____ phase of the cell cycle: Second
During Mitosis, the cell divides from one cell into how many cells: Two
