Question | Answer |
Cell Cycle | a series of events that take place from one cells divison to the next |
interphase | a period of growth and development in eykaryotic cells |
Mitosis | the process in which the neucleus divides to form two identical neucli |
chromosomes | a structure in the neucleus that contains hereditary material |
prophase | Chromatids are visible and the neuclear membraane disentigrates. The centroles move to opposite ends of the cell and spindle fibers are streaching over the cell. |
Metaphase | The pairs of chromatids line up across the center of the cell |
anaphase | cell centrome divides and spindle fibers shorten & move to opposite ends ofthe cell. |
Telophase | The process when the spindle fibers start to dissappear, the chromosomes start to uncoil, and a new neucleus forms. |
