Q

type of division results in ___ being produced from one ____

A

2 identical cells,parent cell

21
Q

mitosis is ____ reproduction

22
Q

asexual reproduction happens with ___ organisms and ____ organisms

A

single cells,multicellar

23
Q

mitosis occurs in a series of stages,the stages depend on the type of organism

A

prokaryotic,eukaryotic

24
Q

the stages of mitosis begin with ___

A

one cell (parent cell)

25
the final product of this type of cell division is___
2 new identical daughter cells
26
in what phase of the cell cycle do cells spend most of their time?
interphase
27
list the four phase of mitosis
1.Prophase,2. Metaphase,3.Anaphase, 4.Telophase
28
(prep) double stranded chromosomes visible-nuclear membrane dissolves.
prophase
29
the chromosomes move toward the middle of the cell and line up to prepare for division
metaphase
30
spindle fiber pulls the chromatids apart
anaphase
31
nuclear membrane reappears around each set of chromosomes forming 2 identical nuclei
telophase
32
list the advantages of mitosis
quick process makes identical copies
33
list the disadvantages of mitosis
Slow: it takes two cell divisions.
34
when it is time to divide,single stranded chromosomes replicate
interphase
35
splits the cell into 2 cytokenesis
cytokenesis
