Front

What is the stage of mitosis where chromosomes line up at the equator of the cell?

Back

Metaphase

Front

What process occurs when two replicated cells split from each other?

Back

Cytokinesis

Front

What is the term for making an identical copy of DNA?

Back

Front

What stage of mitosis involves the disappearance of the nuclear membrane and the visibility of chromosomes?

Back

Prophase

Front

What is the longest stage of the cell cycle where DNA is copied?

Back

Interphase

Front

What structure extends from the centrioles to the chromosomes during metaphase?

Back

Spindle fibers

Front

During which phase do centrioles move to opposite sides of the cell?

Back

Prophase

Front

What is the main purpose of cytokinesis in cell division?

Back

To separate the cytoplasm and create two distinct daughter cells.

Front

What happens to the chromosomes during anaphase?

Back

They are pulled apart to opposite sides of the cell.

Front

What is the role of the nuclear membrane during mitosis?

Back

It protects the genetic material and separates it from the cytoplasm.
