Definition
process in cell division where the nucleus divides,consisting of 4 stages:
prophase,metaphase,anaphase,
telophase =2 new cells
asexual reproduction |
|
|
Term
interphase has
three phases |
|
Definition
G1:cells grow & make synthesize proteins
S (synthesis):chromosomes double & divideto make identical pairs(chromatids) held at the center by centromeres
G2:cells continue to grow & produce proteins for cell division |
|
|
Term
Mitosis = prophase
(4 events happen) |
|
Definition
*chromosomes condense
*nuclear membrane disappears
*centrioles go to the opposite ends of the cell-these hold the spindle fibers that will grab the sister chromatides
*spindle fibers from & reach toward the center of the cell |

Term
|
Definition
-shortest part of mitosis
-chromosomes line up in the (middle) midline of the cell
-spindles fibers connect to the centromere (middle of chromatide) of the chromatide |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
-centromeres split apart
-sister chromatids separate & become individual chromatids
-the separated chromatids move to opposite poles in the cell (sides) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
-chromosomes uncoil
-nuclear membrane start to from around the chromosomes
-spindle fibers start to disintegrate
-cytokinesis begins |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
dividing the cytoplasm
-the cell plate pinches the cell into two parts (plant) |
