What is the nucleus?

What are the G1, S, and G2 phases?
200
A process of reproduction where there is not genetic variance.
What is mitosis?

The phase in which the mother cells grows tremendously in order to provide the correct amount of cytoplasmic organelles to its daughter cells.
What is the G1 phase?
300

What is the Golgi apparatus?
400
The part in mitosis when daughter chromosomes reach the poles and form two new nuclei.
What is telophase?

What is 1:2:1?
500
A laboratory technique in which a sample is spun around a central axis at high speed to separate its components based on their size, density, or weight.
What is centrifugation?

Microtubules that pull apart sister chromatids apart from each other.
What are spindle fibers?
500
The part of mitosis when chromatin is condensed and chromosomes become visible.
What is prophase?
500
The process in which gametes are produced.
What is meiosis?
