Mitosis

Front

What phase of mitosis involves the formation of nuclear membranes and the beginning of cell division?

Back

Telophase

Front

What is the process called when the cell splits into two daughter cells?

Back

Cytokinesis

Front

During which phase of mitosis do centrioles pull chromosomes apart towards opposite sides of the cell?

Back

Anaphase

Front

What is the structure that carries genetic information and is visible during cell division?

Back

Chromosome

Front

In which phase of mitosis do spindle fibers attach and chromosomes line up in the center of the cell?

Back

Metaphase

Front

What is the term for the division of the cytoplasm that occurs after mitosis?

Back

Cytokinesis

Front

What is the role of centrioles during mitosis?

Back

Centrioles help organize the spindle fibers that separate chromosomes.

Front

What happens to the chromosomes during anaphase?

Back

Chromosomes are pulled apart towards opposite poles of the cell.

Front

What is the significance of telophase in the cell cycle?

Back

Telophase marks the end of mitosis, where nuclear membranes reform and the cell prepares to divide.

Front

What are spindle fibers and what is their function during mitosis?

Back

Spindle fibers are structures that help separate chromosomes during cell division.
