Cell Cycle and Mitosis Grade 7

During interphase

• DNA lines up in the middle of the cell and DNA attaches to spindle fibers

• 2 new nuclei form

• 2 new identical cells are created

• DNA gets copied

What is the order of the cell cycle

• interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase,telophase, cytokinesis

• prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, interphase, cytokinesis

• interphase, metaphase, prophase, anaphase, telophase, cytokinesis

• interphase, anaphase, metaphase, telophase, prophase, cytokinesis

Why do cells go through mitosis?

• to make food from sunlight

• to create proteins

• to get air into the cells

• to reproduce, grow and repair/replace

Daughter cells created by mitosis have

• half of the parents genetic material

• twice the parent cell's genetic material

• an exact copy of the parent cell

• have a brand new DNA structure

Which phase is shown here?

• anaphase

• telolphase

• metaphase

• prophase

• metaphase

• prophase

• anaphase

• telophase

What happens when something goes wrong during mitosis?

• Nothing

• cancer

• diabetes

• the cells die

What phase of the cell cycle is the cell in?

• prophase

• metaphase

• anaphase

• telophase

What is the stage called where the cytoplasm and its contents divide?

• inerphase

• mitosis

• cytokinesis

• G1

What is the stage called where the nucleus and its contents divide?

• G1

• mitosis

• Interphase

• cytokinesis
