Mitosis Flashcards
What phase is the cell performing normal functions and metabolically active and starts duplicating organelles?
G1 phase
What are the three phases of interphase?
G1
S
G2
What is interphase, mitotic phase and cytokinesis?
The cell cycle consists of these?
What is pmat?
Prophase
Metaphase
Anaphase
Telophase
What is the G0 phase?
Cells that remain in g1 phase for a long time and never destined to reproduce
Which phase does DNA replication occur?
G2
What is the final prep phase of interphase?
G2
What happens during prophase?
Nuclear membrane disappears
Centrosomes move to opposite sides of the cell
Mitotic spindle is created
Chromosomes move to the ends of the cell during this phase
Anaphase
Metaphase
Chromosomes line up in the center of the cell
When is the cleavage furrow created?
Telophase
Cytokinesis
The final stage of mitosis where the cell membrane and cytoplasm divide and two identical daughter cells are formed
Sexual reproduction
Meiosis
Involves a single somatic cell with 23 pair of chromosomes within the nucleus
Mitosis
What is mitosis also know as?
Asexual reproduction
Indirect division
Somatic cell division
