Q

Process of a single parent cell dividing to make two new daughter cells

A

Mitosis

21
Q

What happens in interphase

A

-DNA duplicates in nucleus before prophase

22
Q

What happens metaphase

A

-Centrioles at opposite poles
-Fire out spindle fibers
-Spindle fiber pull chromosomes to the equator

23
Q

what happens in prophase

A

-All organelles disappear
- Nucleus disappears
-DNA coils and twists into chronozones
-Centrioles apply and move to opposite poles of the cell

24
Q

What happens in anaphase

A

-Sister chromatids separate as the stuff binding them together breaks down
- They become chromosomes and are pulled to opposite poles
-Cell elongates

25
Q

What happens in telophase

A

-The cell begins to finish dividing
-Reestablishes normal structures
-2 new cells identical to parent cell
