Mitosis and the Cell Cycle Quiz Review
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| phase in cells that will no longer divide | G0 |
| period after DNA synthesis occurs | G2 |
| period before DNA synthesis occurs | G1 |
| spindle fiber proteins begin forming | G2 |
| period of most cell growth and metabolic acitivty (normal functions) | G1 |
| phase nearly eliminated in rapidly dividing cells (hint:cancer cells) | G1 |
| chromosomes have reached the opposite ends of the spindle | telophase |
| chromosomes begin migrating to the cell's equator | prophase |
| replicated chromosomes coil up, condense, and become visible | prophase |
| centromeres split | anaphase |
| daughter chromosomes unwind, lengthen, and disappear | telophase |
| the spindle breaks down and disappears | telophase |
| the nuclear envelope disintegrates and disappears | prophase |
| sister chromatids become daugther chromosomes | anaphase |
| the spindle forms the chromosome sorting mechanism | prophase |
| cytokinesis splits the cell into 2 identical daughter cells | telophase |
| the chromosomes align themselves along the cells equator | metaphase |
