100
What is the phase in which a cell spends most of its time?
Interphase
100
When do cells copy their DNA? Be specific!
The S stage of interphase.
100
What do the chromosomes do during metaphase?
Line up in the center of the cell
100
What is one reason that cells go through the process of mitosis?
To replace old cells, for growth or for repair
200
What is considered the growth phase of interphase?
G1
200
What holds identical pairs of chromosomes together during the S stage?
Centromere
200
This is genetic material found in all living things (condensed chromatin)
Chromosomes
200
If a cell has 15 chromosomes, how many chromosomes does each daughter cell contain
15
300
During the mitotic phase, what is the order of the phases
Prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase
300
Cell structures made of individual microtubule fibers that are involved in moving chromosomes during cell division are called
Spindle
300
These come in pairs and help with cell division
Centrioles
300
These cells divide uncontrollably
Cancer
400
In which phase of mitosis is this cell?
Telophase
400
What are the two stages of the cell cycle besides interphase?
Mitosis and cytokinesis
400
When do the sister chromatids separate?
During anaphase
400
When are two new identical nuclei form?
During telophase
500
What will form in plant cells during the final process of the cell cycle?
Cell plate
500
What disappears during prophase?
The nucleus
500
During what phase does the cytoplasm and its contents divide into two identical daughter cells?
Cytokinesis
500
What is the name of the division that bacterial cells go through?
Binary fission
