Interphase
How much time do cells spend in interphase?
90% of time
What is starting to happen to the nucleus?
the nucleus starts to break apart
Where are all the chromosomes located during metaphase?
In the middle of the cell
What happens to the sister chromatids during anaphase?
chromosomes are starting to pull to opposite sides of the cell
which stage is Cytokinesis?
The final stage of cell division
What stage is interphase before?
prophase
what is the name of these?
slide 1
Spindle fibers
If you could watch a cell dividing under a microscope, how would you know it was in metaphase?
If you start to see movement in the chromosomes in the cell
If the chromosomes are lined up in the middle of the cell during metaphase, where are they moving to during anaphase?
To start to get pulled to opposite sides of the cell
In Cyto what happens to the cytoplasm?
It starts to split
What are all four stages of interphase (In order)?
G1, S, G2, MItosis
What is happening to the chromosomes?
The chromosomes are starting to grow visible (thickening to visible)
What do the spindle fibers do?
the spindle fibers are starting to grow and reach out towards the centromere of the chromosomes
Why is it so important for anaphase to happen correctly?
To make sure each cell gets identical sets of chromosomes
In Telo how many chromosomes will each new cell have?
46 chromosomes
Is Mitosis apart of Interphase if so what is it?
Cell division
What does prophase do in mitosis?
prophase starts to Separate the duplicated genetic material
What is the pole?
The pole is each side of the cell where the centrioles are
What would happen if the cells were not properly divided?
The sister chromatids would lose some genetic information
Where are the nuclei forming? (Telo)
At each hole
What is the sign that “Cell replicates DNA”?
S
What is this part of the cell called?
slide 2
Centrioles
What is the Equator?
The equator is the middle of the cell where the chromosomes start to align
At what point in anaphase are the chromosomes considered to be fully separated?
When the sister chromatids are fully on opposite sides of the cell to start the beginning of telophase
Is this Cytokinesis or Telophase?

Cytokinesis
