Mitosis Flashcards
(36 cards)
Which phase is the metabolic phase?
Interphase
In which phase does the cell reproduce itself?
Interphase
Which phase is the longer phase of the cell cycle?
Interphase
How many hours is the Interphase?
20 hours
Interphase is divided into three subphases, what are they?
- G1
- S
- G2
What is G1?
Growth
What is S?
Growth and DNA replication
What is G2?
Growth and final preparation for cell division
In prophase, what are chromatin held together by?
Centromere
What happens to chromatin in Prophase?
It coils into chromosomes
What directs the assembly of a mitotic spindle?
Centrioles
What have broken down in Prophase?
Nucleoli and nuclear envelope
In what phase are the chromoses centered in the middle of the cell?
Metaphase
In which phase do the centromere split?
Anaphase
In which phase do the chromatids move slowly apart and toward the opposite ends of the cell?
Anaphase
When is Anaphase over?
When the chromosomes stop moving
In which phase do chromosomes uncoil to become chromatin?
Telophase
In which phase do spindles break down and disappear?
Telophase
Which phase does the nuclear envelope re-form around chromatin?
Telophase
In which phase do nucleoli appear in each of the daughter nuclei
Telophase
What phase is this?
Interphase
What phase is this?
Interphase
What phase is 1(blue)?
Early Prophase
What phase is 2(blue)?
Late Prophase
