Mitosis
What are the four phases of mitosis? (ORDER MATTERS)
Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase
What are the 4 phases of Meiosis I? (ORDER MATTERS)
Prophase I, Metaphase I, Anaphase I, Telophase I
What are the FINAL products of mitosis?
2 identical daughter cells
What are the three phases within interphase?
G1, S, G2
During which phase do spindle fibers attach to the centromere and begin to pull chromosomes apart?
Anaphase
What are the 4 phases of Meiosis II? (ORDER MATTERS)
Prophase II, Metaphase II, Anaphase II, Telophase II
How many CHROMATIDS are present in each gamete after Meiosis II?
23
During which interphase is genetic material doubled? (FULL NAME)
Synthesis
During which phase do the chromosomes condense and the nuclear envelope start to dissolve?
Prophase
During which phase of Meiosis does 'crossing over' occur?
Prophase I
During which phase of mitosis does cytokinesis take place?
Telophase (will accept: begins in anaphase)
During which phase are cell components doubled?
G1
During which phase do newly separated chromosomes become enveloped in nuclear envelopes?
Telophase
How many times during Meiosis I AND II does cytokinesis take place?
Twice (once during MI, once during MII; during anaphase/telophase in both)
Etymology Extra: Give the etymology for the word 'cytokinesis'.
Cyto: greek 'kytos'; cell (hollow container)
Kinesis: greek 'kinesis'; to move/movement
During which interphase does the cell "double check" before division occurs?
G2
During which phase do chromosomes line up along the middle of the cell?
Metaphase
What are the FINAL products of Meiosis?
4 non-identical haploid daughter cells called gametes
To prevent formation of tetraploid zygote/to make sure cells don't end up with too many chromosomes
What is the physical separation of the cell called?
Cytokinesis
