Mitosis

Question 1

name the phase a cell is in before mitosis takes place

Answer 1

interphase

Question 2

nam the 4 cases of mitosis

Answer 2

prophase
metaphase
anaphase
telophase

Question 3

why do cells under go mitosis

Answer 3

for growth
repair
asexual reproduction

Question 4

what happens in prophase

Answer 4

the nuclear membrane disappears
the nucleolus disappears
the centrosome splits into two centrioles
there a visible chromosomes

Question 5

what does metaphase send for

Answer 5

middle

Question 6

what happens in metaphase

Answer 6

centrioles are at opp poles
chromosomes align at the equator
centrioles form spindle fibres which attach to the centromere

Question 7

what does anaphase stand for

Answer 7

away

Question 8

what happens in anaphase

Answer 8

spindel fibres contract
the centromere splits
one copy of each chromosome is pulled to opposite poles

Question 9

what happens in telophase

Answer 9

cytokinesis takes place

is the vision of the cytoplasm to form two identical cells (daughter cells)

Question 10

how does cytokinesis take place in animals and plants

Answer 10

animals -the cytoplasm constricts (pinchestoghter) forming a cleavage furrow at the equator of the cell.
in late telophase it deepens to divide the cytoplasm into two identical cells each with its own nucleus

Question 11

how does cytokinesis take place in plants

Answer 11

in plants a cell plate form between the two nuclei , which divides the cell into two identical cells. the cell plate becomes the new middle lamella
