Interphase
In what phase is DNA in the form of chromatin?
Interphase
In what phase do the centrioles move to the sides of the cell
Prophase
In which phase are the chromosomes in the center of the cell?
Metaphase
What 3 phases make up the cell cycle?
Interphase, mitosis, and cytokinesis
What stages make up mitosis and in what order?
Prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase
What is the definition of mitosis?
Process by which the chromosomes divide and create genetically identical cells
What is the definition of cytokinesis?
Process by which the cytoplasm divides
What happens during G1?
It is the part of interphase where the cell grows
What happens during S?
It is the part of interphase where the DNA duplicates
What happens during G2?
It is the part of interphase where the cell grows and prepares for mitosis
A cell contains 46 chromosomes. It undergoes mitosis. How many chromosomes are in each of the cells that are created?
46
What is a centromere?
The part that holds the sister chromatids together
What is a sister chromatid?
Identical copy of the DNA
