Cell Cycle (In General)
This part of the cell cycle takes the longest
What is Interphase?
This is the acronym for cell division.
What is PMAT?
This stage of cell division contains crossing over.
What is Prophase 1?
This process creates cells with identical numbers of chromosomes as the parent.
What is Mitosis
This is used to make the body grow
Mitosis
This part of the cell cycle copies DNA.
What is Interphase?
In this stage of Mitosis sister chromatids split up
What is Anaphase
These are the same size and contain similar genes.
What are homologous chromosomes?
This creates a cell with half as many chromosomes as the original cell
What is Meiosis
This is used in asexual reproduction.
Mitosis
What is Interphase?
In this stage of mitosis, two identical cells form
What is cytokinesis?
In this stage 4 different nuclei are made.
What is Telophase 2?
This goes through PMAT twice.
What is Meiosis
This process happens all over the body.
What is Mitosis?
In this part of the body half the cell cycle never occurs.
The brain.
The cell splits apart in this stage.
What is cytokinesis?
This stage looks exactly like the second stage of mitosis
What is Meiosis 2?
In this process, tetrads form
What is Meiosis?
This process is used to create genetically different individuals
Meiosis
The nuclear membrane disappears in this stage
Prophase
In this stage of Meiosis sister chromatids move apart.
What is Anaphase 2?
