What is gene
sections of DNA located on chromosomes
telophase
fourth and final stage where chromosomes reach end of spindle and uncoil
anaphase
third phase of mitosis during which chromosomes pair seperate and move to opposite ends of spindle
prohase
first and longest phase of mitosis during which the nucleus membrane disappears and chromosomes coil up
What is chromosome
threadlike structure of DNA molecules
mitotic cell division
another name for mitosis that ensures that new daughter cells has genes identical to parent cell
cytokinesis
final stage of cell cycle providing each daughter cell with cytoplasm and organelle
what is cell division
process by which one cell divides into new cells making an exact replica
asexual reproduction
unicellular organisms that use mitotic cell division to reproduce offspring identical to parent
interphase
first stage of cell cycle in which the genes are copied
mitosis
equal distribution of of parent's duplicated genes
name all divisons including phases in mitosis
interphase
prophase
metaphase
anaphase
telophase
cytokinesis
what is cell cycle
three stages cell goes for dividing interphase, mitosis, cytokinesis
sister chromatids
identical copies of a chromosome; full sets of these are created during interphase
4 stages of mitosis in order
prophase
metaphase
anaphase
telophase
metaphase
second phase of mitosis during which all chromosomes, sister chromatids, line up in center of spindle
