What is prophase?

 It's the process that separates the duplicated genetic material carried in the nucleus of the nucleus of a parent cell into two identical daughter cells.

100

What is the definition of Metaphase?

When the chromosomes become attached to the spindle.  

100

What is the definition of Anaphase?

It's the stage in meiotic or mitotic cell division where the chromosomes move away from one another to opposite poles and spindles.

100

What is the definition of Telophase?

When the chromatids or chromosomes move to opposite ends of cells and two nuclei are formed.

100

What are chromosomes?

It's a threadlike structure of nucleic acids and protein that is found in the nucleus of most living cells that is carrying genetic information in the form of  genes. 

200

What can you see under a  microscope prophase?

You can see the DNA tightly wounding.

200

Is Metaphase first or second in Mitosis?

Second

200

Is Anaphase before or after Telophase?

Its after

200

Is Telophase last or first?

 Last

200

What is cytokinesis, and when does it occur?

When the physical process of cell division in which it divides the cytoplasm of a parental cell into two daughter cells.

300

What is a chromatin?

It’s unwound DNA that condenses forming chromosomes.

300

What are spindle fibers?

 Its protein structures that pull apart genetic material in a cell when the cell divides.

300

What are sister chromatids?

They are identical copies of the same chromosomes that are formed by DNA replication.

300

What is a nuclear?

 Its energy in a nucleus or core of an atom. Nuclear energy can be used to create electricity.

300

 Definition of nucleus?

It's the central and most important part of an object, part of an object movement or group, forming the basis for its activity and growth.

400

What is the name of the membrane around the nucleus that disappears?

Nuclear envelope.

400

What do Chromosomes do?

They line up in the center/equator of the cell.  

400

How do two sets of chromosomes occur?

When the two sister chromatids of each chromosome separate as the spindles pull the chromatids apart.

400

What happens after the spindle dissolves?

Nuclear envelopes form around the chromosomes in both cells.

400

What are sister chromatids?

They are two identical copies of the same chromosomes formed by DNA replication.

500

What other event happens near the end of Prophase?

The spindles form and attach to the chromosomes that help them move.  

500

What's going on in the image?

The chromosomes line up in a row , each on top of the next.  

500

What's going on in the image?

The chromosomes are separating as the spindles are pulling the chromatids apart.

500

What's happening in the image?

The spindle is dissolving and the nuclear envelopes form around the chromosomes in both cells.

500

How many pairs does a chromosome divide into?

 In human cells, our DNA is divided up into 23 pairs of chromosomes.
