Mitosis

Front

Chromatin condenses into tightly coiled chromosomes in what stage of Mitosis?

Back

Prophase

Front

How many parts is Prophase divided up into and what are they called?

Back

2: Early Prophase, Late Prophase (Prometaphase)

Front

In what stage of Mitosis does the nucleolus disappear?

Back

Prophase

Front

How many identical "sister chromatids" does each chromosome contain?

Back

2

Front

What do the nucleolus and the nuclear envelope have in common?

Back

They both hold the cell together

Front

In what stage of Mitosis do spindle fibers attach to the protein structure on the centromere of each chromosome and align along the equator of the cell?

Back

Metaphase

Front

What is the centromere of a cell?

Back

The centromere links a pair of sister chromatids together. It is the location where spindle fibers attach.

Front

In what stage of Mitosis do sister chromatids separate from each other?

Back

Anaphase

Front

In what stage of mitosis do spindle fibers shorten, pulling the sister chromatids away from each other to the opposite sides of the cell?

Back

Anaphase

Front

In what stage will cytokinesis start and continue into?

Back

Anaphase, Telophase
