Cell Cycle & Mitosis

Front

What is the correct order of the phases of mitosis?

Back

Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase

Front

Cells of organisms must replicate for?

Back

All of the above (Growth, Replacement of dying cells, Repair of damaged cells)

Front

Is interphase a part of Mitosis?

Back

No, it happens before mitosis.

Front

Which phase of the cell cycle is #5?

Back

Metaphase

Front

Why do cells go through mitosis?

Back

To reproduce, grow, and repair/replace cells.

Front

What is Mitosis?

Back

A process of cell division that results in two genetically identical daughter cells.

Front

What is the role of Prophase in Mitosis?

Back

Chromatin condenses into chromosomes, and the nuclear envelope begins to break down.

Front

What happens during Metaphase?

Back

Chromosomes align at the cell's equatorial plate.

Front

What occurs in Anaphase?

Back

Sister chromatids are pulled apart to opposite poles of the cell.

Front

What is Telophase?

Back

The final phase of mitosis where chromosomes de-condense and the nuclear envelope re-forms.
