The second phase of the cycle
prophase
Long, loose , thin fibers of DNA and proteins
chromatin
What is the 1st phase of the cell cycle?
Interphase
What occurrence within the cell does the cell cycle represent?
Cell Division
In Interphase chromosomes are copied?
True.
During this phase, chromosomes line up in the center of the cell and spindle fibers attach to the centromeres.
Metaphase
One half of a duplicated chromosome
sister chromatid
What is the 4th phase of the cell cycle?
What is, Anaphase
What is the longest phase in the cell cycle?
Interphase
In Prophase spindle fibers form between the poles?
True.
These form during Prophase when chromatin condenses.
chromosomes
Holds two sister chromatids together
What is, centromere
what is the 6th phase
Cytokinesis
The cell cycle results in two genetically _________ cells.
Identical
The purpose of Mitosis is the formation of gametes
False
These hold identical chromatids together.
centromeres
Visible structure seen beginning in prophase
chromosome
what is the 2nd phase of the cell cycle?
What is, Prophase
Phase in which the cell cytoplasm divides
Cytokinesis
In Telophase chromosomes appear as chromatin
True
In this phase, a new nuclear envelope appears.
telophase
Nucleic acid that makes up the bulk of a chromosome
DNA
What is the 3rd phase of the cell cycle?
What is, Metaphase
The cell cycle produces what?
Two daughter cells
Telophase is the 4th phase
False It is actually the 5th phase
