What is the order of the cell cycle?

Back

interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, cytokinesis

Front

What happens during prophase?

Back

Chromosomes condense, nucleus disappears.

Front

Why is DNA important?

Back

It provides the instructions/blueprint for a cell.

Front

Does cytokinesis produce two different daughter cells?

Back

False, cytokinesis produces two identical daughter cells.

Front

What comes after Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase?

Back

Cytokinesis.

Front

What is interphase?

Back

The phase of the cell cycle where the cell prepares for division, including DNA replication.

Front

What occurs during metaphase?

Back

Chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell.

Front

What is anaphase?

Back

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

Front

What happens during telophase?

Back

Nuclear membranes start to reform around the two sets of chromosomes.

Front

What is the role of spindle fibers?

Back

They help separate the chromosomes during cell division.
