1
New cards

What is the first stage of mitosis

Prophase

2
New cards

What is the second step of mitosis

Prometaphase

3
New cards

What is the third phase of mitosis

Metaphase

4
New cards

What is the 4th phase of mitosis

Anaphase

5
New cards

What is the 5th step

Telophase

6
New cards

What is the following step of telophase

Cytokineses

7
New cards

What is the end product of mitosis

Two identical daughter cells contains all genetic information pertains to that organism

8
New cards

What is occurring in G2

Cell growth continues and there is synthesis of special proteins in preparation for mitosis

9
New cards

What happens to the chromatin during prophase

Becomes tightly coiled (condensed) forms the common shape with sister chromatids

10
New cards

What’s links two sister chromatids

A centromere

11
New cards

What does the mitotic spindle do

Divides chromosomes

12
New cards

What is the mitosis spindle composed of

Microtubles that are produced by centrosomes structured in the cytoplasm

13
New cards

What happened during interphase (before mitosis beings)

Duplication of the chromosomes (DNA)

14
New cards

During what stage does the nucleus disassemble

Metaphase

15
New cards

Chromosomes line up in the middle is what stage

The stage is metaphase

16
New cards

What are the pulls called pulling the sister chromatids apart during anaphase

Spindle fibers (microtubules) kenticochores

17
New cards

What stage causes the sister chromatids to be separated to the edges of the cell

Anaphase

18
New cards

What stage has the location of the sister chromosomes on complete opposite sides the of the cell

Telephase is the stage

19
New cards

During what stage is the reformation fo two nuclei on both sides of the cell

Telephase

20
New cards

What stage is responsible for the final separation of the two cells by splitting the cytoplasm

Cytokinesis

21
New cards

Where do the spindal fibers (kinetochores) connect to the chromosomes during metaphase

The centromeres (which is the DNA sequence)

22
New cards

Telephase does what to the chromosomes shape

They become lose again like noodles

23
New cards

The formation of a contracting ring of micro filaments interacting with myosin that deepen into cells to separate the contents into two separate cells is called what

Cleavage furrow

24
New cards

During what phase does the mitotic spindle begin to form and create two poles of the spindal apparatus (but does not attach to the chromosomes)

Prophase

25
New cards

The line in the middle of the cell where the chromosomes line up during metaphase is referred to as what

The equatorial plane or metaphase plate

26
New cards

Unlike animal cells plant cells have cell walls how do their cells separate during cytokinins

Formation of a cell plate

27
New cards

Chromosomes after DNA replication consist of what

Two sister chromatids connected by a centromere

28
New cards

These attach to the plasma membrane and are apart of the centrioles during metaphase

Asters

29
New cards

These are large protein structures assembled on the centromere of each sister chromatid they are the attachment point for micrtubles of the mitotic spindle

Kinetochore

30
New cards

What occurs during s phase in the cell cycle

Cellular DNA is replicated and the two daughter cells each get one set of DNA
