Cell Cycle, Mitosis, Cell Division

Front

What is the substage of interphase where the cell prepares for nuclear division?

Back

G2 phase

Front

During which phase of mitosis do sister chromatids separate?

Back

Anaphase

Front

What do mitosis and cytokinesis produce?

Back

Two identical daughter cells

Front

What happens during the growth/gap 1 stage of the cell cycle?

Back

The cell doubles in size and grows.

Front

What is the role of cytokinesis in the cell cycle?

Back

Cytokinesis completes the cell cycle.

Front

What is interphase?

Back

The phase of the cell cycle where the cell prepares for division, consisting of G1, S, and G2 phases.

Front

What occurs during the S phase of interphase?

Back

DNA replication takes place.

Front

What is the main purpose of mitosis?

Back

To ensure equal distribution of chromosomes to daughter cells.

Front

What is the difference between mitosis and cytokinesis?

Back

Mitosis is the division of the nucleus, while cytokinesis is the division of the cytoplasm.

Front

What happens during prophase of mitosis?

Back

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