Cell Test Flashcards
1
Q
Prophase
A
BEFORE**
nucleus membrane breaks down, spindle fibers form, chromosomes thicken
2
Q
Metaphase
A
MIDDLE***
chromosomes line up at the equator; shortest phase of mitosis
3
Q
Anaphase
A
AWAY**
chromosomes migrate to poles, movement stops anaphase is over, nuclear membrane absent, twice as many chromosomes
4
Q
Telophase
A
END**
prophase in reverse, nuclear membrane forms, spindle fibers dissipate, cytokinesis occurs (cytoplasm dividing)
5
Q
Interphase
A
DNA replication
6
Q
Hypotonic
A
plump, water rushes into them
7
Q
Isotonic
A
cause no visible change, same tonicity
8
Q
Hypertonic
A
shrinkage(crenate), high concentrated water inside the cell rather than outside
9
Q
Tonicity
A
ability of a solution to change the size and shape of cells by altering the amount of water they contain
