Q

What is interphase

A

It is the cell that grows, and copies organelles and chromosomes, the two copies are called chromatids

17
Q

What is Mitosis

A

Mitosis is a process of cell division that forms to new nuclei each of which has the same number of chromosomes

18
Q

What is prophase ( jumbled)

A

It is where the nuclear membrane dissolves and the chromosomes condense

19
Q

What is metaphase (middle)

A

It is where the chromatids lineup in the middle of the cell

20
Q

What is anaphase(separation)

A

Where the spindle fibers pull apart the chromatids to opposite ends of the cell

21
Q

What is telophase (2 chromosomes)

A

It is when the nuclear membrane begins to reform in the cell is ready to become two new cells

22
Q

What is cytokinesis

A

It is parent cells that become two daughter cells

23
Q

What are Homologous chromosomes

A

They are similar chromosomes that pair up and make an x shape

24
Q

What is a chromatid

A

They are two copies of cells

25
Q

What is the centromere

A

It is the center/equator of the cell and it holds the chromatids together
