8 Terms

1
New cards

G₁ phase (Gap 1 phase)

Cell grows and makes proteins.

2
New cards

S phase (Synthesis phase)

DNA replication occurs, doubling the number of chromosomes.

3
New cards

G₂ phase (Gap 2 phase)

More cell growth and protein synthesis.

4
New cards

Prophase

Chromosomes condense and are visible as sister chromatids, nuclear membrane disappears, spindle fibers form out of centrioles.

5
New cards

Metaphase

Spindle fibers connect to the centromere of each sister chromatid, and chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell.

6
New cards

Anaphase

Sister chromatids separate, moving to opposite ends of the cell and becoming individual chromosomes.

7
New cards

Telophase

Chromosomes decondense and nuclear membrane reforms around chromosomes, spindle fibers break down as cytokinesis begins.

8
New cards

Cytokinesis

End result is 2 identical cells.
