Mitosis
Is how cells reproduce and tissue
What is Mitosis?
23 chromosomes
A distinct nucleus
What does an eukaryotic cell have?
The chromosomes are pulled apart by the spindle fibers during this stage
What is anaphase?
Mitosis is the division of somatic cells to create new; identical cells
What is true?
23 pairs of chromosomes/ 46 chromosomes
How many chromosomes do diploid cells have?
In the cells nucleus
Where is the genetic information for an organism found?
The spindle fibers attach to the centromere
The same number of chromosomes as the parent cell
How many chromosomes does the daughter cells contain after mitotic cell division, or mitosis?
DNA molecules
What are chromosomes made up of?
Is a thick liquid, and holds many of the cell's organelles
What is the cytoplasm?
During metaphase, the nuclear membrane finishes breaking down.
What is true?
The four stages of mitosis in their correct order
What is prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase
Centromere
What is the point called where chromatids are joined together?
Spindle fibers
What structure inside the cell helps pull the chromatids apart?
The cell grows, chromosomes start to duplicate, and the cell prepares for mitosis
What happens during interphase?
The stage(s) when the nuclear envelopes form around the separate sets of chromosomes.
What is Telophase/Prophase ?
46
How many chromosomes do humans have in their somatic cells?
In plants and animals, the cell membrane pinches the divided cell mass into two cells.
What is false?
Moves to opposite end of the cell and form 2 separate poles
What happens during prophase, the centrioles?
