Parts of Cell
The name for the chromosomes after they are pulled apart during Anaphase.
Sister chromatids.
The subuint of Interphase in which growth and normal metabolic roles are carried out.
Interphase G1
Two sister chromatids make up what?
A chromosome
What is the part of the middle of the cell that connects the chromosomes when they are lined up?
Metaphase plate
True or False:
Telophase and Cytokinesis are the same thing.
False
The form of DNA found during Mitosis.
Chromosome
DNA exists in this form during Interphase.
Chromatin
What do the chromosomes do during Prophase?
Coil up, become visible and become more organized.
Centrioles
What happens after the cell finishes both Telophase and Cytokinesis?
It starts again at Interphase
The organelle that serves as an anchor for the protein fibers that make up the mitotic spindle.
Centriole
The subunit of Interphase in which DNA is replicated.
Interphase S
True or False:
Prophase is the longest-lasting stage of Mitosis.
True
The stage of Mitosis in which the sister chromatids are pulled to the opposite sides of the cell.
Anaphase
Which type of cell grows a cell plate during Cytokinesis?
Plant Cell
Chromatin
True or False:
Chromatin is unorganized and chromosomes are not visible during Interphase.
True
What starts to form during Prophase?
Mitotic spindles. (Centrioles and microtubules)
What pulls the chromosomes to opposite sides of the cell?
Spindles
What are the fibers of the mitotic spindles made of?
Centrioles and microtubules
The center part that holds together the two sides of a chromosome.
Centromere
The subunit of Interphase in which growth and preparation for Mitosis occurs.
Interphase G2
Describe what a cell looks like during Prophase. (3 things.)
1. Nuclear Membrane disappears
2. Nucleolus disappears
3. Chromosomes coil up and become visible
The stage of Mitosis in which the chromosomes are pushed to the middle plane of the cell.
Metaphase
Describe what happens during Telophase. (3 things.)
1. Nuclear membrane reappears
2. Nucleolus reappears
3. Chromosomes uncoil
