Cell Cycle-Mitosis

Front

During interphase

Back

DNA gets copied

Front

During prophase

Back

centrioles and spindle fibers appear

Front

During metaphase

Back

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

Front

During anaphase

Back

Each DNA gets pulled to the opposite sides of the cell

Front

During telophase

Back

2 new nuclei form

Front

During cytokinesis

Back

Cell membrane pinches to make 2 new identical daughter cells

Front

Why is DNA important?

Back

It provides the instructions/blueprint for a cell.

Front

What is the order of the cell cycle?

Back

interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, cytokinesis

Front

Why do cells go through mitosis?

Back

to reproduce, grow and repair/replace

Front

Daughter cells created by mitosis have

Back

an exact copy of the parent cell
