Cell Cycle

The final stage of the cell cycle, when the cell splits into 2 identical daughter cells.

• interphase

• cytokinesis

• mitosis

• prophase

The 2nd stage of the cell cycle, during which the cell's nucleus divides into 2 new nuclei. Each nucleus has an identical copy of DNA.

• telophase

• cytokinesis

• interphase

• mitosis

The 1st stage of the cell cycle during which the cell grows and matures in size, replicates its DNA, and prepares for cell division.

• anaphase

• mitosis

• interphase

• cytokinesis

Phase of mitosis when the chromatin condenses into chromosomes and the nuclear envelope breaks down

• Prophase

• Metaphase

• Anaphase

• Telophase

Phase of mitosis when the chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell.

• Prophase

• Metaphase

• Anaphase

• Telophase

Phase of mitosis when the sister chromatids separate and move towards opposite sides of the cell.

• Prophase

• Metaphase

• Anaphase

• Telophase

Phase of mitosis when the chromosomes stretch out and nuclear envelopes form around each region of chromosomes.

• Prophase

• Metaphase

• Anaphase

• Telophase

The process by which a cell makes a copy of the DNA in its nucleus

• Transcription

• Replication

• Mutation

• Translation

The regular sequence of growth and division that eukaryotic cells undergo.

• Growth sequence

• Cell division

• Cell cycle

• Cell sequence

A doubled rod of condensed chromatin; contains DNA that carries genetic information

• Chromosome

• Chromatid

• Centromere

• Nucleus
