Cell Mitosis

What is the correct order of the phases of mitosis?

• Metaphase, Anaphase, Prophase, Telophase,

• Pelophase, Motophase, Anaphase, Trophase

• Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase

• Telophase, Anaphase, Prophase, Metaphase

Why do cells go through mitosis?

• to make food from sunlight

• to get air into the cells

• to create proteins

• to reproduce, grow, and repair/replace cells

Which phase of the cell cycle is #5?

• Interphase

• Prophase

• Telophase

• Metaphase

Cell division is represented by what letter?

• A

• B

• C

• D

The process of mitosis starts with one parent cell, and results in two identical daughter cells. During ​ (a)   , the cell elongates and pinches inward, while the nuclear envelope re-forms. In ​ (b)   , the chromatids begin to pull apart and move to opposite poles. During ​ ​ (c)   , the nuclear envelope begins to break down, and the chromosomes fully condense. In ​ (d)   , the centrioles migrate to opposite ends of the cell, while the chromosomes line up in the center, ready to divideA

• Telophase

• Anaphase

• Prophase

• Metaphase

In mitosis, the two resulting cells are

• different from the starting cell and different from each other.

• identical to the starting cell and different from each other.

• identical to the starting cell and identical to each other.
