Q

Anaphase

A

The 4th stage in which the synthesis is undone, going from 2n –> 1n. The chromosomes move to the poles.

Q

Telophase

A

The chromatids move to the poles of the cell, the nuclear envelop reforms and the cell plate/membrane reforms.

17
Q

Homologs

A

Holds genetic information, and the shared ancestry between others.

18
Q

Bivalents

A

A pair of homolog chromosomes

19
Q

Mitotic Apparatus

A

Separates sister chromosomes in a daughter cell.

20
Q

Spindle Fibers

A

Microtubules that are spiraled during mitosis.

21
Q

Haploid

A

Single set of unparied chromosomes

22
Q

Diploid

A

Contains two sets of chromosomes, from parents.

23
Q

Cell Plate

A

Forms between the two nucleus during the telophase.

24
Q

Furrow

A

An indent on the cells surface.
