What is mitosis?
The process that results in new cells with genetic material that is identical to the original cell
The end product of mitosis is the cell having two sets of chromosomes. Is this A) Haploid or B) Diploid
Diploid
What is this stage of meiosis?
Cytokinesis II
the phase when the chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell
Metaphase
Can you count to 5?
The number of phases in mitosis.
4
The number of daughter cells produced by meiosis
What are spindle fibers?
The fibers that appears in prophase and help move chromosomes.
What is the longest phase of the cell cycle?
Interphase
the phase when chromosomes pull apart toward the poles

what is prophase?

2
the phase where chromosomes reach the poles and begin to uncoil. Afterwards cytokinesis begins
Telophase
What are you doing on your summer holiday?
What..?
What kind of cells does mitosis make?
Normal body (diploid cells)
Are the gametes made from meiosis identical?
No!
What is it called when the cytoplasm divides after telophase?
cytokinesis
the phase where the cell carries on normal activities. At the end DNA makes a copy of itself and mitosis or meiosis begins
interphase
Can you say the alphabet in less than 8 seconds?

What is the purpose of mitosis?

How many times does meiosis divide a cell?
2
What is DNA replication?

Metaphase
the phase where the nucleus disintegrates
Prophase
