The longest stage of interphase
What is G1?
Prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase
What are the four stages of mitosis?
Cytokinesis usually occurs after this phase of mitosis
What is telophase?
X-like structure in DNA
What is a chromosome?
The process of nuclear division that maintains the chromosome number
What is mitosis?
The cells are in a ”rest” position and performing normal cell activity without division.
What is the G0 stage?
Stage of mitosis where chromosomes arrive at opposite spindle poles, decondense, and become enclosed by a new nuclear envelope
What is telophase?
This phase occurs directly before cytokinesis.
What is telophase?

Phase in mitosis
What is prophase?
A part of a chromosome that links sister chromatids together
What is a centromere?
These structures that contain genetic information are duplicated during the S stage.
What are chromosomes?
Mitosis occurs in this type of cell.
What is somatic?
Forms after telophase as the contractile ring pulls the cell surface inward
What is cleavage furrow?

Phase in mitosis
What is anaphase?
A cell spends most of their time in this phase
What is interphase?
The sequential order of interphase.
What is G1, S, G2?
A centrosome becomes duplicated during this stage
What is prophase?
A groove in the plasma membrane between daughter nuclei.
What is a cleavage furrow?
A cell copies its chromosomes by DNA replication in this phase; also labeled C in the diagram
What is the S phase?
A diploid human body cell has this number of chromosomes
What is 46 or 23 homologous chromosomes?
This process NEVER occurs during interphase.
What is cell division?
When a cell divides by mitosis, both cellular offspring have this number of chromosomes
What is 46?
A disk-shaped cell structure that forms and partitions descendant cells during cytokinesis in a plant cell
What is a cell plate?

An indentation in the center of a dividing cell (the arrows)
What is a cleavage furrow?
A disease that occurs when a malignant neoplasm physically and metabolically disrupts body tissues
What is cancer?
