The cell spends most of it's life in...

• interphase

• G2

• cytokinesis

• metaphase

During interphase the cell ___________.

• divides into two cells

• replicates its DNA

• replicates the organelles within the cell

After interphase is completed the cell moves into the next stage of the cell cycle called _________.

• anaphase

• cytokinesis

• metaphase

• mitosis

The following describes __________ during mitosis. The chromatin condenses and spindle fibers form at each side of the cell. The nuclear membrane breaks apart.

• prophase

• metaphase

• anaphase

• telophase

The following describes ________  during mitosis. The chromosomes line up along the center of the cell and the spindle fibers attach to each chromosome at the centromere.

• prophase

• metaphase

• anaphase

• telophase

The following describes _________ during mitosis. The spindle fiber splits the centromere and the chromatids move to opposite sides of the cell.

• prophase

• metaphase

• anaphase

• telophase

The following describes _________ during mitosis. Two new nuclei form, chromosomes are no longer visible, and the spindle fibers disappear.
