Cell Cycle & Mitosis Mastery

Front

What phase of the cell cycle involves chromosomes lining up at the equator of the cell?

Back

Metaphase

Front

What letter represents cell division?

Back

Front

Which phase of mitosis is characterized by the separation of sister chromatids?

Back

Anaphase

Front

Is interphase considered a part of mitosis?

Back

No, it happens before mitosis.

Front

What is the correct order of the cell cycle phases?

Back

G1, S, G2, Mitosis, Cytokinesis

Front

What is the main purpose of mitosis?

Back

To divide a single cell into two identical daughter cells.

Front

What happens during prophase?

Back

Chromatin condenses into visible chromosomes, and the nuclear envelope begins to break down.

Front

What is cytokinesis?

Back

The process that follows mitosis, where the cytoplasm divides to form two separate cells.

Front

What are spindle fibers?

Back

Structures that help separate chromosomes during cell division.

Front

What occurs during telophase?

Back

Chromosomes arrive at opposite poles, and the nuclear envelope re-forms around each set of chromosomes.
