mitosis

Question 1

cell cycle

Answer 1

when cells in an organism go though a cycle of growth development and division

Question 2

mitosis

Answer 2

the process by which a parent cell divides into two identical daughter cells .

Question 3

interphase

Answer 3

interphase of the cell cycle between periods of mitosis in which the cell grows

Question 4

prophase

Answer 4

the first phase of mitosis during which chromosomes condense and the nuclear membrane starts to disappear

Question 5

metaphase

Answer 5

the second phase of mitosis during which chromosomes line up along the center of the cell

Question 6

anaphase

Answer 6

the third phase of mitosis during which each chromosome is pulled apart by spindle fibers and the resulting daughter chromosome are pulled apart to opposite sides of the cell

Question 7

telophase

Answer 7

the fourth and final phase of mitosis during which a nuclear membrane forms around chromosomes on opposite sides of the cell and the chromosomes become unwound DNA in a newly formed nucleus

Question 8

cytokinesis

Answer 8

a stage of the cell cycle during which the cell membrane pinched in and the cytoplasm divides inti tow daughter cells after mitosis

Question 9

centriole

Answer 9

an organelle found near the nucleus in animal cells that form the spindle fibers that pull chromosomes apart during mitosis

Question 10

chromosomes

Answer 10

part of the cell that contains genes

Question 11

DNA

Answer 11

the chemical found in cells is the main component of chromosomes and carries genetic information

Question 12

centromere

Answer 12

a structure that holds the sister chromatids together

Question 13

sister chromatids

Answer 13

two identical chromatids that make up duplicated chromosomes

Question 14

daughter cell

Answer 14
