Mitosis
What is cell division?
Cell division is the process where a cell is divided to form 2 new cells.
What happens in Prophase 1?
Crossing over.
Interphase!
(longest period of time) A period of time in between mitosis during which a cell grows and copies its DNA.
What is the main goal of Mitosis?
To make body cells.
How many different divisions does Meiosis go through?
2.
Prophase!
Chromosomes become visible, nuclear membrane dissolves, spindle fibers forms.
How many different divisions does the cell go through?
One.
How many chromosomes are in the human cell during Meiosis?
23.
Metaphase!
Chromosomes meet in the middle.
How many chromosomes are in the human cells during Mitosis?
46.
Are the cells genetically identical?
No due do to the crossing over of DNA.
Anaphase!
Phase of mitosis in which the chromosomes separate and move to opposite ends of the cell.
Is Mitosis Haploid or Diploid?
Diploid.
Is Meiosis Diploid or Haploid?
Haploid.
Telophase!
Phase of mitosis in which a nuclear membrane reforms around each new set of chromosomes.
