parent cell

20
Q

The new cells are called

A

daughter cells

21
Q

Presence of 2 complete sets of chromosomes in an organism’s cell, each parent contributing a chromosome to each pair

A

diploid (2n)

22
Q

Presence of a single set of chromosomes in organism’s cells
duplicates the centrosome

A

haploid (n)

23
Q

Assembles the microtubules that make up the spindle fibers

A

Mitotic spindle

24
Q

Mitosis is a form of ________ reproduction

A

asexual

25
Q

Mitosis creates _______ _______ ___

A

two daughter cells

26
Q

The daughter cells in mitosis are _______

A

identical

27
Q

What are the purposes of mitosis

A

Growth
Repair
Replace

28
Q

Centrosomes outside nucleus duplicate and move away from eachother
Spindle fibers appear between seperating centrosomes
nuclear envelope begins to fragment
nucleolus disappears as chromosomes condense

A

prophase

29
Q

Each chromatid attached to spindle fiber and some spindle fibers stretch from each spindle pole and overlap

A

prometaphase

30
Q

Centromeres align at equator
spindle fibers attached to sister chromatids come from opposite spindle poles

A

metaphase

31
Q

sister chromatids part and becomes daughter chromosomes that move toward spindle poles. Each receive same number and kinds of chromosomes as parental cell.

A

Anaphase

32
Q

Last step of mitosis
daughter cells are forming
nuclear envelopes reappear
nucleoli reappear
chromosomes will become indistict chromatin

A

Telophase

33
Q

Division of cytoplasm
cleavage furrow (slight indentation) passes around circumference of cell
Actin filaments form a contractile ring
As ring becomes smaller, cleavage furrow pinches cell in half
Cell becomes enclosed by its own plasma membrane

A

Cytokinesis
