What 3 stages make up Interphase? 

G1, S, G2

100

How many phases make up mitosis and what are they IN ORDER?

4, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase

100
What phase of the cell cycle prepares the cell for division?
Interphase
100

Why must the cell divide once it reaches a certain size? 

Surface area does not increase as quickly as volume and DNA cannot meet the demands of the cell. 

100
The division of the cytoplasm of the cell during cell division is referred to as_____________.
Cytokinesis
200
What is the longest phase in the cell cycle?
Interphase
200

What is the first phase of Mitosis? 

Prophase

200
During interphase, DNA has replicated and appears as a loosely coiled mass known as ___________.
Chromatin
200

What MUST happen before the cell can divide? 

DNA Replication 

200
What is the end result of cytokinesis?
Two identical daughter cells
300

What phase of the cell cycle does Mitosis occur in? 

M phase

300

During which phase of Mitosis do chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell? 

Metaphase
300

What happens when a cell divides? 

Each daughter cell receives its own copy of the parent cell's DNA

300
In which phase do the nuclear envelopes reform around the separated chromosomes?
Telophase
300
True or False: Cytokinesis is the division of the cell nucleus.
False. Cytokinesis is the division of the cytoplasm. Mitosis is the division of the nucleus.
400

What does the S stage stand for and what happens during this stage? 

Synthesis, DNA is synthesized

400

What are the two main stages of Cell Division? 

Mitosis and Cytokinesis

400

During normal cell division a parent cell has 6 chromosomes, how many will each daughter cell have? 

6

400
At what phase in cell division do the spindle fibers pull the chromosomes to opposite poles of the cell?
Anaphase
400
The pinching apart of the cytoplasm in an animal cell creates a ___________.
Cleavage furrow
500

When during the cell cycle are chromosomes visible? 

During Cell Division (Pro, Meta, Ana, Telo)

500
List the phases of mitosis in order.
Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase

What is the role of Spindle Fibers in Mitosis? 

Separate and Move Chromosomes
500
Spindle fibers attach to the centromeres and chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell during this phase of cell division.
Metaphase
500
In plant cells, a _______________ is built between the two daughter cells as they pull apart during cytokinesis.
Cell plate
