True or False: Mitosis is comprised of 5 parts those being: Interphase, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase.
FALSE: Interphase is not actually apart of mitosis but instead is a step the cell takes to prepare for mitosis.
100
True or false: Prophase is the first stage if both mitosis and meiosis.
TRUE
100
Metaphase is preceded by ________ and is followed by _______.
Prophase and anaphase.
100
True or false: Anaphase has two steps.
TRUE
100
What are the cells formed after mitosis called?
Daughter cells.
200
True or False: Interphase is the longest phase of the cell cycle.
TRUE: Interphase is the longest phase of the cell cycle. Interphase takes 21 hours to complete, because of its complexity and the DNA replication.
200
What structor do chromosomes condense into?
An X-shaped structure.
200
True or false: Metaphase last 2-3 minutes.
False: Metaphase last 2-10 minutes.
200
Do kinetochore fiber microtubules shorten or elongate.
They elongate.
200
True or false: Mitosis is longer than meiosis.
FALSE: On average meiosis takes longer than mitosis.
300
What are the three stages of interphase.
The three stages of interphase are called G1, S, and G2.
300
What is the step that happens between prophase and metaphase?
Prometaphase.
300
Chromosomes become attached to what?
Spindle fibers.
300
Where do chromosomes break during anaphase?
They break at the centromeres. (Saying the middle does not count).
300
What is another name for telophase?
CYTOKINESIS!
400
What happens during the S phase of interphase?
DNA replication/genetic information is being duplicated.
400
This structor begins to form during prophase.
Spindle fibers are beginning to form.
400
During metaphase the double-stranded chromosomes line up right at the middle of what?
The cell.
400
Draw anaphase, the most accurate one wins!
400
Whats begins to form again during telophase?
The nucleolus.
500
What happens during the G0 phase and when does it happen?
G0 is the phase of the cell cycle during which a cell is neither dividing nor preparing to divide. During this period the cell performs regulatory and its basic cellular functions.The G0 phase happens during the G1 stage.
500
In prometaphase, the ___________ breaks apart into numerous "membrane vesicles".
Nuclear membrane.
500
Metaphase is characterised by the alignment of the duplicated chromosomes at the BLANK.
equatorial plate known as the metaphase plate.
500
During anaphase spindle fibers are called what?
During anaphase, the spindle fibers are called the mitotic spindle.
500
The effects of what phase is reversed in telphase?
The effects of prophase and prometaphase are reversed.
