How many phases make up mitosis?
4
How many cells occur at the end of mitosis? End of meiosis?
2; 4
List the phases of mitosis in order.
Prophase, Prometaphase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase
The division of the cytoplasm of the cell during cell division is referred to as_____________.
Cytokinesis
Where does synapsis/cross over occur?
Prophase I
How does metaphase I differ from metaphase II/ metaphase (of mitosis)?
Metaphase I- they line up 2 by 2 (as homologs)
Metaphase II/Metaphase- line up single file
At which phase do the chromosomes become visible in the cell?
Prophase
Where does the DNA get replicated?
S phase
Which meiosis division is most similar to mitosis?
Meiosis II
In which phase do the nuclear envelopes reform around the separated chromosomes?
Telophase
What is the order of interphase?
G1, S, G2
At what phase in cell division do the spindle fibers pull the chromatids to opposite poles of the cell?
Anaphase
The pinching apart of the cytoplasm in an animal cell creates a ___________.
Cleavage furrow
Spindle fibers attach to the centromeres and chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell during this phase of cell division.
Metaphase
In plant cells, a _______________ is built between the two daughter cells as they pull apart during cytokinesis.
Cell plate
