DNA replicates during ________ _________ of the cell cycle.

• G1 phase

• S phase

• G2 phase

• M phase

In this phase, sister chromatids are separated by spindle fibers.

• Anaphase

• Cytokinesis

• Telophase

• Metaphase

In this phase, spindle fibers line up the chromosomes in the center of the cell.

• Cytokinesis

• Interphase

• Anaphase

• Metaphase

In this phase, the chromosomes condense, the nuclear membrane disassembles and the spindle fibers form.

• Anaphase

• Cytonkinesis

• Interphase

• Prophase

In this phase the cell membrane pinches, creating a cleavage furrow in animal cells and a cell plate in plant cells.

• Cytokinesis

• Anaphase

• Telophase

• Prophase

Why would it be important to replicate DNA before a cell divides in mitosis?

• In order for genetic information to be transferred into daughter cells.

• In order for the cell to be able to increase in size.

• In order for the DNA to be contained in the nucleus.

• In order for the cell to re-order the DNA sequencing in the new cells.
