Cell Division

The longest phase of the cell cycle 

• prophase
• interphase
• metaphase
• mitosis

the phase of mitosis in which the sister chromatids separate (pull apart) from each other

• prophase
• metaphase
• anaphase
• telophase

The point on the chromosome where the two chromatids are held together is the

• centromere
• centriole
• chromosome
• chromatid

How does cytokinesis differ in plant and animal cells?

• Cytokinesis only takes place in animal cells.
• Cytokinesis only takes place in plant cells.
