Mitosis Review
What is the name of the structure that connects the two chromatids?
Centromere
In a chromosome pair connected by a centromere, what is each individual chromosome called?
Chromatid
During which phase do chromosomes first become visible?
prophase
During what phase are the chromosomes located at the equator of the cell?
Metaphase
During what phase do the chromatids line up along the equator?
Metaphase
Which phase of mitosis is the last phase that chromatids are together?
Metaphase
During what phase are the chromosomes moving towards the poles of the cell?
Anaphase
During what phase do the sister chromatids move apart?
Anaphase
During what phase of mitosis do centromeres divide and the chromosomes move toward their respective poles?
Anaphase
Cell growth occurs
Interphase
Chromosomes are duplicated
Interphase
DNA synthesis occurs
Interphase
During what phase are chromosomes replicated?
Interphase
During what phase are the chromosomes not visible?
Interphase
During what phase is cytokinesis completed?
Interphase
During what phase is the cell plate completed?
Interphase
Mitochondria and other organelles are made
Interphase
Protein production is high
Interphase
What is the phase where chromatin condenses to form chromosomes?
Interphase
What phase are daughter cells in as a result of mitosis?
Interphase
Which phase of the cell cycle is characterized by a non-dividing cell?
Interphase
During what phase do the chromosomes become visible?
Interphase or Prophase
Chromosomes are distributed equally to daughter cells
Mitosis
Cytoplasm divides immediately after this period
Mitosis
Nuclear division occurs
Mitosis
What are the two parts of cell division?
Mitosis & Cytokinesis
During what phase does the nuclear membrane begin to fade from view?
Prophase
During what phase does the nucleolus begin to fade from view?
Prophase
During what phase is the spindle formed?
Prophase
The organization phase?
Prophase
What are sister chromatids? When do they separate?
Sister chromatids are chromosomes and their newly formed "clones". They separate during anaphase.
What structure forms in prophase along which the chromosomes move?
Spindle Fiber
What structure is produced when protein fibers radiate
Spindle Fibers
During what phase does a new nuclear membrane form around the chromosomes?
Telophase
During what phase does the division (cleavage) furrow appear?
Telophase
During what phase is the cytoplasm of the cell being divided?
Telophase
The reverse of prophase?
Telophase
Chromosomes move to the middle of the spindle during what phase?
metaphase
In multicellular organisms, the cell cycle produces groups of cells that perform the same function. These are called?
tissues
