Mitosis

Front

What is Mitosis?

Back

Mitosis is the process of cell division that results in two genetically identical daughter cells from a single parent cell.

Front

What are the main phases of Mitosis?

Back

The main phases of Mitosis are Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase.

Front

During which phase of mitosis do chromosomes coil?

Back

Prophase.

Front

What happens during Metaphase?

Back

During Metaphase, chromosomes line up along the equator of the cell.

Front

What is Cytokinesis?

Back

Cytokinesis is the process that follows mitosis, where the cytoplasm of a parental cell divides into two daughter cells.

Front

Which type of cell forms a cell plate during cytokinesis?

Back

Plant Cells.

Front

Do all cells in a human body have the same set of genes?

Back

True.

Front

What is Interphase?

Back

Interphase is the phase of the cell cycle when the cell is not dividing and is performing its normal functions.

Front

What is the role of spindle fibers during mitosis?

Back

Spindle fibers help separate the chromosomes during cell division.

Front

What is the difference between plant and animal cell cytokinesis?

Back

Plant cells form a cell plate, while animal cells undergo cleavage furrow formation.
