New cards

what is mitosis

cell division where cell nucleus divides and creates two identical daughter cells

2
New cards

what are the stages of mitosis

prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, and cytokinesis

3
New cards

what happens before mitosis

interphase

4
New cards

what happens in interphase and name the different stages

g1 phase - cell recovers from previous division and increase in size, synthesizes the enzymes organelles needed fro DNA replication

s phase - DNA replication happens

g2 phase - cell continues to grow and replenish energy, cell checks for any error or damage in replicated DNA before entering mitosis

5
New cards

what happens in prophase

chromatin coils into visible chromosomes

nuclear envelope disappears

spindle fibers attach to kinetochore of centromere

6
New cards

what happens in metaphase

chromosomes line up in middle of cell

7
New cards

what happens in anaphase

sister chromatids are pulled apart from each other to form individual chromosomes

8
New cards

what happens in telophase

Chromosomes reach the opposite poles and begin to decondense into chromatins

New nuclear envelope form around each new set of chromosomes

mitotic spindle breaks down

9
New cards

what happens in cytokinesis

cytoplasm divides

a cleavage furrow pinches the cell into two

happens during anaphase and telophase

10
New cards

what stage is this and what makes it obvious

cytokinesis since it looks like two cells are about to form/are divided and the chromosomes are decondenses to chromatin (become a lighter color/not noticeable)

11
New cards

12
New cards

what stage is this and what makes it obvious

13
New cards
<p>what stage is this and what makes it obvious</p>

what stage is this and what makes it obvious

14
New cards
