Cell splits into two.

• Metaphase

• Cytokinesis

• Interphase

• Prophase

Which organelle moves the chromosomes to opposite sides of the cell (like the poles of Earth)?

• Centriole

• Nucleus

• Cell Plate

• Lysosomes

What is the acronym for mitosis?

• PTAM

• PMAT

• TAMP

These fibers help pull apart the cell during mitosis.

• spindle

• centromeres

• chromatids

This area is where the chromatids are attached at the "center" of the chromosomes

• centromere

• chromatids

• chromosomes

Mitosis makes...

• body cells

• lung cells

• skin cells

• pancreas cells

What is a Centromere?

• structure that holds the sister chromatids together.

• the phase of the cell cycle in which the nucleus and its contents divide.

• the phase in which the cytoplasm and its contents divide.

• the period during the cell cycle of a cell’s growth and development.

What might happen if cytokinesis did not occur after mitosis?

• The cell becomes stronger because it has two sets of organelles.

• The cell becomes heavier because it has two sets of organelles.

• The cells would remain fused together and the new double cell would have duplicates of all parts.

• The cell becomes bigger because it has two sets of organelles.

During the cell cycle, the cell’s nucleus and its contents divide to create two ____________.

• organelles

• organisms

• identical daughter cells

• organs
