CELL LIFE CYCLE Flashcards
1
Q
INTERPHASE
A
not a phase of mitosis but is the period between cell divisions
2
Q
PROPHASE
A
first phase of mitosis. nuclear membrane disappears, freeing the chromatin
3
Q
METAPHASE
A
chromosomes line up along the cell’s equator (imaginary center plane)
4
Q
ANAPHASE
A
chromatids split at the centromere moving toward an opposite pole along the path of a spindle fiber. at the end, there are 46 chromosomes.
5
Q
TELOPHASE
A
each side of the cell changes everything to the way it should be during interphase
6
Q
5 PHASES OF CELL LIFE CYCLE
A
INTERPHASE, PROPHASE, METAPHASE, ANAPHASE and TELOPHASE
