Science life cycle Flashcards
1
Q
Interphase
A
90-98% of the time, the cell cycle doing these important steps before the cell divides in Mitosis.
2
Q
G1
A
Cell growth
3
Q
S phase
A
The copying of DNA
4
Q
G2
A
Preparing/maturing for Mitosis
5
Q
Mitosis
A
Finial part. Mitosis is the process eukaryotic cells use to make two new, identical cells. The new cells are like clones of the parent cell and are also called “daughter cells”.
6
Q
PROPHASE
A
Start of Mitosis DNA condenses into chromosomes (organized DNA). Nuclear membrane disappears.
7
Q
Chromosome
A
DNA inside and in an X for when it splits
8
Q
METAPHASE
A
Chromosomes line up along the middle of the cell. Spindle fibers (yellow lines made from centrioles) help move the chromosomes around the cell.
9
Q
ANAPHASE
A
Chromosome separates and begins to move Away or Apart to the opposite ends of the cell.
10
Q
TELOPHASE
A
Two new nuclei form. Chromosomes decondense. Mitosis ends.
11
Q
CYTOKINESIS
A
cytoplasm divides after mitosis to make 2 new cells
