What is the indentation produced as the ring contracts inward in animal cells?

Cleavage furrow

100

In what phase does the cell grow, copy organelles, and create molecule building blocks?

G1

100

In what phase do centrioles divide, the nuclear envelope breaks down?

Prophase

100

What connects sister chromatids together?

Centromere

200

What structure causes animal cells to divide into two?

Contractile Ring

200

In what phase is the DNA divided?

M phase

200

In what phase do centromeres align on a plate?

Metaphase

200

In what phase of mitosis do sister chromatids separate and migrate to opposite poles?

Anaphase

300

What components make up the contractile ring in animal cells?

Actin and myosin

300

This includes G1, S, and G2 phases?

Interphase

300

In what phase does the nuclear envelope reassemble, and the mitotic spindle is broken down?

Telophase

300

In what phase of the cell cycle does the cell synthesize a copy of DNA in its nucleus?

S phase

400

What structure causes plant cells to divide into two?

Cell plate

400

In what phase does the cell grow and prepare for mitosis?

G2

400

In what phase do centrioles reach the opposite poles and spindle fibers form?

Prometaphase

400

What specific type of cells are produced from mitosis?

Two diploid somatic cells

500

Name the three components that make up the cell plate?

Plasma membrane components, pectin, and cellulose

500

In this phase cells are nondividing and some cells may restart division

G0

500

In what phase of interphase are sister chromatids created?

S phase

Explain the difference between plant and animal cell cytokinesis

Plant cells have a cell wall, animal cells have a contractile ring and a cleavage furrow
