Cell Division

Mitosis is the stage of the cell cycle during which

• the cell’s nucleus divides into two new nuclei.

• the cell’s cytoplasm divides.

• the cell divides into two new cells.

• the cell’s DNA is replicated.

The stage in the cell cycle when the cell goes through normal activities, replicates DNA and grows

• Mitosis

• Prophase I

• Interphase

• Cytokinesis

Forms around chromatids during telophase.

• chromatin

• centromeres

• spindle fibers

• two new nuclei

Cytokinesis in animals involves

• the formation of a cell plate

• Two new daughter cells being formed.

• organelles dividing.

• replication of DNA

Control center of the cell

• mitochondria

• cell membrane

• lysosomes

• nucleus

What is the job of the cell membrane?

• to provide structure and support

• to control which substances enter and leave the cell

• forms a hard outer covering

• cell membranes perform different functions in each cell

You can't see the cells in your body because most of them are very small.

• True

• False

• histones

• cloning

DNA in the form of thin thread-like strands

• chromatin
