miosis Flashcards
Cell cycle
when cells in an organism go through a cycle of growth development and division
mitosis
the process by which a parent cell divides into two identical daughter cell
Interphase
the sage of the cell cycle between periods of mitosis in ich the cell grows
prophase
the first phase of mitosis during which chromosomes condense and he nuclear starts to disappear
metaphase
thesecound phase of mitoses during ich chromosomes line up along the center of the cell
activase
the third phase of mitosis during which eachchromesome is pulled apart by spindle fibers and he resulingdagher chromosomes are pulled o opposite sides of the cell
telophase
the fourth asnf final phase of mitosis during which nuclear membrane forms around chromosomes on opposite sides of the cell and the chromosomes become unwound DNA in nelu formed nucleus
cytokinesis
a sage of the cell which the cell membrane pinches in a divides into todaters cells after mitosis
centriole
an organelle found near the nucleus in animal cells what forms the spindle fibers that pull chromosomes apart during mitosis
chromosome
the part of the cell that contains genes
dna
the chemacl found in cells that is main company of chromeos and cries genice informtion
centromere
a structure that holds the sister chromatids together
sister chromatids
wo idniacal chromades thar make up a duplicaedchromosome
daughter cell
the result of the cell cycle where two genetically identical cells are formed
