Q

Prophase

A

First and longest phase of mitosis. Chromosomes become visible and double, centrioles move and make the spindle, nuclear envelope disappears

Budding

A

Process of asexual reproduction where the cell divides itself disproportionately

16
Q

Binary fission

A

Process of asexual reproduction where the parent cell divides itself equally

17

Regeneration

A

Process of cell division where an organism regrow a an entire body part
