Lab 4: Mitosis

Question 1

It is a phase in interphase wherein the cell grows and carries out normal metabolism; organelles duplicate.

Answer 1

G1 Phase

Question 2

It is a phase in interphase wherein the DNA replicates and the chromosome duplicates.

Answer 2

S-Phase

Question 3

It is a phase in interphase wherein the cell grows and prepares for mitosis.

Answer 3

G2 Phase

Question 4

A phase in plant mitosis wherein the chromatin condenses; the nucleolus begins to disappear; mitotic spindle starts to form.

Answer 4

Prophase

Question 5

A phase in plant mitosis wherein the spindle is complete; the chromosomes attached to microtubules at their kinetochores are all aligned at the center plate.

Answer 5

Metaphase

Question 6

A phase in plant mitosis wherein the chromatids of each chromosome have separated, and the daughter chromosomes are moving to the ends of cell as their kinetochore microtubules shorten.

Answer 6

Anaphase

Question 7

A phase in plant mitosis wherein the daughter nuclei are starting to form.

Answer 7

Telophase

Question 8

A phase in plant mitosis wherein the cell plate will start to form, which divides the cytoplasm into two, growing toward the perimeter of the parent cell.

Answer 8

Cytokinesis

Question 9

It is the specialized region of chromosome; constriction point of 2 sister chromatids.

Answer 9

Centromere

Question 10

It is a protein complex that attaches to the spindle fiber.

Answer 10

Kinetochore
