CELL DIVISION & MITOSIS

Front

What is the first phase of Mitosis?

Back

Prophase

Front

During which stage of Mitosis do the chromosomes stretch?

Back

Telophase

Front

What is the role of centrioles during Mitosis?

Back

Centrioles pull the spindle fibers that are attached to the chromosomes to opposite ends of the cell during Anaphase.

Front

Where is a cell's genetic material located?

Back

Nucleus

Front

What is the correct order of the phases of the Cell Cycle?

Back

Interphase, Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase, Cytokinesis.

Front

What happens during Prophase?

Back

Chromatin condenses into visible chromosomes, and the nuclear envelope begins to break down.

Front

What occurs during Metaphase?

Back

Chromosomes align at the cell's equatorial plane, and spindle fibers attach to the centromeres.

Front

What is Anaphase?

Back

The phase where sister chromatids are pulled apart to opposite poles of the cell.

Front

What is Cytokinesis?

Back

The process that divides the cytoplasm of a parental cell into two daughter cells.

Front

What is the function of spindle fibers?

Back

Spindle fibers help separate the chromosomes during cell division.
