Cell Division
The two types of cell division in these cells are mitosis and meiosis.
Eukaryotic Cells
The stage of the cell cycle when the cell is ____________ is called the mitotic phase or M phase.
Actually dividing
Chromosomes are distributed equally into ____ identical daughter cells.
Two
Humans have ____ chromasomes.
46
Chromosomes line up across center of cell in this phase.
Metaphase
Daughter cells will have the __________ as the original parent cell.
The exact same genetic material
Prokaryotes reproduce by this.
Binary fission
The nuclear envelope breaks down & nucleolus disappears in this phase.
Prophase
The 4 phases of mitosis
Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase
Cell division produces new cells for growth, to replace old or damaged cells, and for ___________.
Reproduction
A new nuclear envelope forms around each chromosome region in this phase.
Telophase
DNA is replicated in the ____ phase of interphase.
S
Interphase and cell division (mitotic phase)
Chromatids move to opposite ends of the cell by spindle fiber stretching in this phase.
Anaphase
When the cell pinches in at a cleavage furrow and splits the cell into two new cells.
Cytokinesis
