Day 10 - Mitosis

Question 1

This is the study of cells

Answer 1

Cytology

Question 2

It is the process that increases in size and quantity of cells

Answer 2

Cell Division

Question 3

It is the stages of a cell’s life. From single parent cells to 2 daughter cells

Answer 3

Cell cycle

Question 4

Explain the process of Mitosis

Answer 4

The DNA replicates, the centrioles divides and proteins synthesizes (INTERPHASE)
The nuclear envelope disintegrates and mitotic spindle forms (PROPHASE)
Chromosomes are aligned in 1 straight line (METAPHASE)
Centromeres divide and move towards opposite poles (ANAPHASE)
Chromosomes reach its spindle forms and the nuclear envelope appears (TELOPHASE)

Question 5

This the process where cells quit dividing. It is also called as the temporary resting stage

Answer 5

GAP 0

Question 6

It is the restriction point where the cell size increase, produces RNA and synthesizes protein

Answer 6

GAP 1 Phase

Question 7

It is the phase that produces 2 daughter cells and the DNA is replicated

Answer 7

Synthesis Phase or S phase

Question 8

This is te gap between DNA synthesis and mitosis. It grows and produces protein

Answer 8

GAP 2

Question 9

It is the division of cytoplasm and it forms cleavage furrow in animals and forms cell plate in plants

Answer 9

Cytokenesis
