Front

What is the role of spindle fibers during cell division?

Back

They help separate chromosomes during mitosis.

Front

What is the main purpose of interphase in the cell cycle?

Back

To prepare the cell for division by duplicating its DNA and organelles.

Front

What are the four main phases of mitosis?

Back

Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase.

Front

What happens during prophase?

Back

Chromatin condenses into chromosomes, the nuclear envelope breaks down, and spindle fibers form.

Front

What occurs during metaphase?

Back

Chromosomes line up at the cell's equator and spindle fibers attach to their centromeres.
