Mitosis

Question 1

Interphase

Answer 1

Cell prepares to divide by replicating genetic & cytoplasmic material. (G1, S, G2)

Question 2

Prophase

Answer 2

Chromatic thickens & nuclear membrane disintegrates. Centrioles move to opposite sides of the cells, and spindle fibers form. Mitotic spindle, formed cytoskeleton parts, moves chromosomes around the cell

Question 3

Metaphase

Answer 3

Spindle moves to the center of the cell. Chromosomes align in the center

Question 4

Anaphase

Answer 4

Sister chromosomes begin to pull apart. When separated they’re called daughter chromosomes. Grooves appear in the cell. Cell begins to furrow.

Question 5

Telophase:

Answer 5

Spindle disintegrates, nuclear membrane reform, and chromosomes turn into chromatin. In animal cells membrane is pinched, in plant cell a new cell wall begins to form. Splits into two

Question 6

Cytokinesis

Answer 6

Physical splitting of the cell
