Cell cycle

Question 1

Interphase

Answer 1

90% of the cells life is spent in Interphase, where it grows, increases in size and organelles DNA of the cell is duplicated

Question 2

What does Mitosis allow for?

Answer 2

Growth, Repair and replacement

Question 3

What are the stages of Mitosis?

Answer 3

Interphase, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase and Telophase

Question 4

Prophase (Mitosis)

Answer 4

Chromosomes are condensing

Question 5

Metaphase (Mitosis)

Answer 5

Chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell, the nucleus has been broken apart

Question 6

Anaphase (Mitosis)

Answer 6

Chromosomes move to opposite sides of the cell (Spindle fibers help move the chromosomes)

Question 7

Telophase (Mitosis)

Answer 7

Chromosomes are at complete opposite ends, nuclei are starting to form and surround the chromosomes.

Question 8

Cytokinesis

Answer 8

Splits cytoplasm

Question 9

Meiosis

Answer 9

Makes sperm and egg cells (Gametes, only 23 chromosomes each) Interphase happens here as well.

Question 10

Meiosis allows for…

Answer 10

Growth, DNA replication

Question 11

Prophase 1

Answer 11

chromosomes line up with their homologous pairs, crossing over.

Question 12

Metaphase 1

Answer 12

Chromosomes in the middle of the cell (pairs)

Question 13

Anaphase 1

Answer 13

chromosomes pulled away by spindle fibers

Question 14

Telophase 1

Answer 14

two newly formed nuclei, end meiosis one with 2 new cells.

Question 15

Prophase 11

Answer 15

Spindles begin to form

Question 16

Metaphase 11

Answer 16

Chromosomes line up in the middle (single file)

Question 17

Anaphase 11

Answer 17

Chromatids pulled away by spindle fibers

Question 18

Telophase 11

Answer 18

nuclei reforming, two cells have divided into four
