cell cycle

Question 1

Which two stages are not part of mitosis

Answer 1

Interphase and cytokinesis

Question 2

What happens in Interphase

Answer 2

Unraveling chromosomes
Nuclear envelope present
Centrioles pair together
Chromosomes condense

Question 3

What happens during prophase

Answer 3

Chromosomes condense and are visible under a light microscope
Nuclear envelope breaks down
Nucleolus disappears
Centrioles moves to opposites poles of the cell

Question 4

Metaphase

Answer 4

Chromosomes are attached by spindle fibers at the centromere
Chromosomes line up at the center of the cell

Question 5

Anaphase

Answer 5

Spindle fibers shorten and centromere splits which causes sister chromatids to spilt apart to opposite poles of the cells

Question 6

Telophase and cytokinesis

Answer 6

Spindle fibers break down
Nuclear envelope stars to reform around the 2 nuclei
Chromosomes decondense and are no longer visible under a light microscope

Question 7

What happens in G1 of interphase

Answer 7

Proteins are made
organelles replicate
growing

Question 8

What happens in S phase of interphase

Answer 8

synthesizing DNA (DNA replication)
2 sister chromatids being made

Question 9

What happens in G2 of interphase

Answer 9

Growth and preparation for cell division
