New cards

Mitosis

splitting of DNA inside the nuclei

2
New cards

cytokinesis

the splitting of cytoplasm or cell

3
New cards

interphase

the resting phase between the first and second divisions of meiosis; the cell collects nutrients and prepares for the next phase (G1,S,G2)

4
New cards

prophase

the first stage of cell division during which the chromosomes become visible as paired chromatids

5
New cards

metaphase

the second phase of mitosis, where the nuclear membrane breaks apart into membrane vesicles, chromosomes inside form kinetochores (protein structures)

6
New cards

anaphase

the fourth phase of mitosis, where chromosomes move away from one another to opposite poles of the spindle

7
New cards

telophase

fifth and final phase of mitosis, the process where chromatids or chromosomes move to opposite ends of the cell and two nuclei are formed
