MITOSIS 1
This is our genetic information inside cells
What is DNA?
Duplicated chromosomes held together by a centromere are called
sister chromatids
Mitotic spindles are formed from these.
What are centrioles?
This is the phase before the start of mitosis
What is interphase?
What is the term used for the eukaryotic cell division process?
What is mitosis?
DNA replication occurs during this phase.
What is the S phase (Synthesis phase)?
What is cancer?
During this stage, the nuclear membrane reforms
What is telophase?
The cell grows during these two phases in interphase?
What is G1, G2
These are the 3 stages of interphase, in order.
What is G1, S, and G2?
This is the form of DNA that we can see as "X's" inside a cell.
What are chromosomes?
These are the 4 stages of mitosis? (in order)
What is prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophases?
In this mitosis stage, the chromosomes move toward to the poles of the cell
What is anaphase?
An apparatus of microtubules that resembles strings that controls chromosome movement during mitosis
What are spindle fibers?
In this stage of mitosis, the chromosomes align in the middle or equator of the cell
What is Metaphase?
The term for DNA that is wound together with proteins in their least condensed state before condensing into chromosomes
What is Chromatin
The longest phase of the cell cycle, which is 90% of the cell's life
Interphase
If a chicken has 82 chromosomes, how many chromosomes will each daughter cell have at the end of mitosis?
What is 82?
What is the end result of mitosis?
Two genetically identical daughter cells
Grow
Repair
Reproduce
The area where spindle fibers attach to chromosomes
What is the centromere?
What is the difference between mitosis and cytokinesis?
Mitosis = Division of the nucleus
Cytokinesis = Division of the cytoplasm
During which stage of a cell's cycle do the replicated chromosomes condense and become visible
What is prophase?
This is the thing that forms between 2 PLANT cells during cytokinesis
What is a cell plate
Mitosis is only about ____% of the time in respect to the whole cell cycle
What is 10%
