What is about 20 minutes?
100
The sister chromatids of the separated chromosomes are pulled in this direction during the anaphase.
What are the poles of the cell?
100
The chromosomes do this inside of the new nuclear membranes to form new nuclei.
What is unraveling inside of the new nuclear membranes?
100
Interphase comes at this time in relationship to mitosis.
What is before and after mitosis?
200
The spindle fibers begin to extend from this organelle during the prophase.
What are the centrosomes?
200
Errors in Mitosis occur most frequently when chromosomes align at this location.
What is the metaphase plate?
200
All of mitosis takes this long to complete.
What is about one hour?
200
This is the end result of the telophase.
What is two new nucleoli at either end of the cell and cytokinesis begining during mitosis?
200
The interphase takes up this amount of the cell's life.
What is most of the cells life?
300
The membrane of the nucleus does this during the prophase.
What is disappear/dissolve?
300
This cellular structure pulls the chromosomes during the metaphase (and the rest of mitosis).
What are the spindle fibers?
300
This is the end result of the anaphase.
What is a complete set of chromosomes assembled at both ends of the cell?
300
This forms around the chromosomes at either end of the cell during the telophase.
What is a "nuclear envelope" or nuclear membrane?
300
The whole cell does this during the interphase.
What is growing larger?
400
In the prophase the spindles first appear as this structure.
What are asters?
400
This is the place that the chromosomes move to during the metaphase.
What is the metaphase plate, at the center of the cell?
400
The spindle fibers do this during the anaphase.
What is pulling the chromosomes in half and pulling them to either side of the cell?
400
These form at either end of the cell during the telophase as a result of the nuclear membrane forming around the chromosomes.
What is two nucleoli?
400
The chromosomes do this during the interphase.
What is replicating?
500
We get the word "asters" from this ancient society.
What were the Greeks? Extra, "asters" meant "stars"
500
The spindle fibers attach to this specialized part of each chromosome.
What are the kinetochores?
500
The spindles are made up of these.
What are microtubules?
500
The spindles do this during the telophase.
