Prophase
Part of the cell that contains genetic material.
What is the nucleus?
The second stage of mitosis.
What is metaphase?
The stage number of Anaphase.
What is third?
The Phase where the separated chromosomes reach the opposite ends of the cell.
What is Telophase?
This organelle divides during mitosis.
What is the nucleus?
The stage of mitosis where chromosomes condense and become visible.
What is Prophase?
Centrosomes are located here during metaphase.
What is opposite poles?
This is what happens to the cell's length during this phase.
What is elongates?
The structure that reforms around each set of chromosomes during telophase.
What are Nuclear membranes/envelopes?
Mitosis has this many stages.
What is four?
This is what happens to the nuclear envelope during Prophase.
What is disintegrate?
The name for each identical half of a duplicated chromosome.
What is a Sister Chromatid?
These separate during Anaphase and allow for them to become individual chromosomes.
What is sister chromatids?
The term for chromosomes as they unwind and become less condensed at this stage.
What is Chromatin?
During Cytokinesis, this part of the cell is divided into two.
What is the cytoplasm?
These contain genes and make up chromosomes.
What are chromatins?
Spindle fibers attach to this part of each sister chromatid to prepare for separation.
What is the centromere?
This structure shortens during Anaphase and pull chromosomes to opposite ends of the cell.
What are Spindle Fibers (microtubules)?
The components of the cell that disappear or break down during this phase after completing their job of moving chromosomes.
What are spindle fibers?
The name given to new cells produced by mitosis.
What are daughter cells?
Structures that pull spindle fibers and attached chromosomes to opposite ends of the cell.
What are centrioles?
Chromosomes line up here during metaphase.
What is the metaphase plate?
The main purpose of Anaphase.
What is ensuring equal distribution of chromosomes?
These small, dense structures reappear within the newly forming nuclei during telophase.
What are Nucleoli (singular: Nucleolus)?
The structure that guides the movement of chromosomes.
What are spindle fibers?
