Cell Cycle Flashcards
Test Study
Order of mitosis?
Interphase, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase & Cytokinesis
What happens during prophase?
DNA condenses into chromosomes
What happens during interphase?
DNA is replicated
What happens during metaphase?
Sister chromatids line up
What happens during anaphase?
The sister chromatids separate
What happens during telophase?
A nucleus is formed on each side
What happens during cytokinesis?
The cell divides into 2 separate daughter cells
What happens during G1?
1st growth phase; cell is still functional
What happens during Checkpoint 1?
Asks…
Is there a need for cells?
Is DNA undamaged?
Is there sufficient cell growth?
What happens during Synthesis
(S phase) ?
DNA is synthesized
(make & duplicate DNA)
Left with sister chromatids
What happens during G2?
2nd growth phase
Final mitosis preparation
What happens during checkpoint 2?
Ask…
Was the DNA replicated properly?Was there sufficient cell growth?
When do cells divide?
Mitosis/Cytokinisis
