4.3: Mitosis, Cell Cycle, & Differentiation

What is the purpose of mitosis?

• To increase the surface area of a cell
• To allow cells to divide for growth, repair, and renewal
• For increasing genetic variation within a species
• To allow for DNA replication and protein synthesis

The division of the cytoplasm is called

• mitosis

• interphase

• cytokinesis

• somatic

Put the following stages of mitosis in order: anaphase, prophase, metaphase, and telophase. 

• prophase, metaphase, telophase, anaphase
• prophase, anaphase, metaphase, telophase
• prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase
• prophase, telophase, metaphase, anaphase

During anaphase

• Chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell and chromosomes attach to spindle fibers

• centrioles and spindle fibers appear

• Each sister chromatid gets pull to the opposite sides of the cell

• DNA is replicated
