MITOSIS 1
This is our genetic information inside cells
What is DNA?
The 2 parts of the X-shaped chromosomes have this "sibling" name
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 Cytokinesis?
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 is condensed?
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 resemble 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
What is interphase
If a chicken has 82 chromosomes, how many chromosomes will each daughter cell have at the end of mitosis?
What is 82?
This many cells arise from a single cell after the completion of mitosis and cytokinesis?
What is two cells?
In what stage of the cell cycle does cytokinesis begin?
What is telophase.
The area where spindle fibers attach to chromosome
What is the centromere?
during which stage of a cell's cycle do the replicated chromosomes thicken and become visible
What is prophase?
This is the cytoskeletal element that spindle fibers are made of
What is a microtubule
This is the cytoskeletal protein that is "rope-like" and helps cleave the cells during cytokinesis
What is actin?
