Mitosis

Question 0

G1

Answer 0

Gap phase #1 (1st growing phase)

Question 1

M phase

Answer 1

Mitosis (nuclear division) and cytokinesis (cellular division)

Question 2

S Phase

Answer 2

Synthesis phase (replicating DNA)

Question 3

G2 Phase

Answer 3

Gap phase #2

Growing and getting ready to divide

Question 4

Interphase

Answer 4

G1, S, G2

Question 5

Prophase/Prometaphase

Answer 5

Chromosomes condense
Nuclear envelope breaks down
Mitotic spindle (microtubules) forms
Kinetochore (protein structure at centromere) connects chromosomes to microtubules
Centrosomes (organizing centers) form at opposite sides of cells

Question 6

Metaphase

Answer 6

Centromeres line up at metaphase plate

Question 7

Anaphase

Answer 7

Sister chromatids separate

Kinetochores pull chromosomes along microtubules

Question 8

Telophase

Answer 8

Two daughter nuclei form

Question 9

Cytokinesis

Answer 9

Cytoplasm is divided

Question 10

Cell cycle control

Answer 10

Cyclins (fluctuating concentration) and cyclin dependent kinases (Cdks; steady concentration): regulatory proteins
Both cyclins and Cdks in high concentration: form maturation promoting factor (MPF)
