Interphase
200
At which phase do the chromosomes become visible in the cell?
Prophase
300
The cell cycle results in two genetically _________ cells.
Identical
300
In which phase do the nuclear envelopes reform around the separated chromosomes?
Telophase
400
The cell cycle state where the cell grows to its full size, copies the DNA and organelles and prepares to divide is called the ________________.
Interphase
400
At what phase in cell division do the spindle fibers pull the chromosomes to opposite poles of the cell?
Anaphase
500
What is the importance of the cell cycle to multicellular organisms with respect to tissue repair?
The cell cycle replaces damaged, worn, and aging cells

Spindle fibers attach to the centromeres and chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell during this phase of cell division.
Metaphase
