Cells Vocab Quiz

the genetic information inside the cells of the body that helps make people who they are.

• Mitosis

• Interphase

• DNA

• Prophase

cell division in which the chromosomes move away from one another to opposite poles of the spindle.

• Nucleus

• Anaphase

• Metaphase

• Replication

the nucleus dissolves and the cell's chromosomes condense and move together, aligning in the center of the dividing cell.

• Metaphase

• Cytoplasm

• Centromere

• Interphase

is the membrane-enclosed organelle within a cell that contains the chromosomes.

• Cytoplasm

• Prophase

• Spindle fibers

• Nucleus

(blank) is the final stage in both meiosis and mitosis in a eukaryotic cell.

The process by which a single parent cell divides to make two new daughter cells.

• Mitosis

• Centromere

• Cytoplasm

• Prophase

are protein structures that pull apart the genetic material in a cell when the cell divides.

• interphase

• Mitotic plate

• Spindle Fibers

• Centromere

( blank) are thread-like structures located inside the nucleus of animal and plant cells.

• DNA

• Chromosome

• Mitotic Plate

• Interphase

1. the cytoplasmic division of a cell at the end of mitosis or meiosis, bringing about the separation into two daughter cells.

• Cytokinesis

• Prophase

• Cytoplasm

• Centromere
