What happens during mitosis?
The chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell
The cell divides its cytoplasm
The nucleus and its contents divide
The cell replicates its DNA
What happens after mitosis?
A new cell membrane forms around each daughter cell
Two new identical nuclei form
The chromosomes begin to uncoil
The cytoplasm and its contents divide
What is the first stage of the cell cycle?
Interphase
Mitotic phase
Replication phase
Development phase
What happens during the interphase of the cell cycle?
The cell grows and prepares for division
The cell divides its cytoplasm
The chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell
The cell replicates its DNA
What is the result of the cell cycle?
Two identical daughter cells
One new cell
Three new cells
Four new cells
What happens to the nuclear envelope during prophase?
It starts to break down
It doubles in size
It changes its shape
It becomes more rigid
What is the significance of the G1 phase in the cell cycle?
