Mitosis

Question 1

What is mitosis

Answer 1

Mitosis is a types of cell division in which a diploid cell copies itself and finally divides into two identical diploid daughter cells.

Question 2

What are the stages of Mitosis?

Answer 2

Interphase
Prophase
Metaphase
Anaphase
Telophase
Cytokinesis

Question 3

Interphase

Answer 3

The cells spends most of its life in this phase. The DNA in chromosomes copies itself ready for mitosis

Question 4

Prophase

Answer 4

In prophase the DNA in chromosomes and their copies copies condenses to become more visible.

The membrane around the nucleus disappears

Question 5

Metaphase

Answer 5

The chromosomes and their copies Lineup in the middle of the cell

Question 6

Anaphase

Answer 6

In anaphase the chromosomes and the copies a pulled to different ends of the cell

Question 7

Telophase

Answer 7

New membranes from around the chromosomes at each end of the cell

Question 8

Cytokinesis

Answer 8

The cell membrane pinches in and eventually Divides into two daughter cells

Question 9

What is the haploid cell

Answer 9

A haploid cell have half a set of chromosomes

Question 10

What is a diploid cell

Answer 10

A diploid cell has a full set of chromosomes

Question 11

What is meiosis

Answer 11

Meiosis is a type of cell division that creates sex cells with half the genetic information
