Term
mitosis
Definition
nucleous divides
chromosome number is retained
Term
cytoplasmic division
Definition
division of cytoplasm
Term
cytokinesis
Definition
cytoplasmic division
Term
chromatin
Definition
long thin strands of chromatin
Term
chromatid
Definition
after replication, this is what the strands of chromonsomes are called
Term
order of mitosis
Definition
interphase
prophase
metapphase
anaphase
telophase
Term
interphase
Definition
"resting stage"
before enering prophase, chromosome replicates bey making a double chromosome
Term
prophase
Definition
1.chromatids become shorter and visible
2.nuclear membrane disintegrates
3. paired centrioles move to opposite ends of cell
-astral rays surround centrioles
-spindle fibers reappear
4. nucleous disappears
Term
metaphase
Definition
1. centrioles are at opposie ends
2.double chromosomes move to the middle of the cell along the equator
3. each double chromosome is attached to spindle fibers
Term
anaphase
Definition
1.chromatids seporate to seporate chromosomes
2. individual chromosomes move away toward their centrioles
