QuestionAnswer
In what stage do cells synthesize unique proteins for growth and maintenance and enzymes/other substances which may be used outside the cell? Interphase
What is cytokinesis? division of the cytoplasm
What is chromatin? Chromatin is the complex combination of DNA and proteins that makes up chromosomes
What 3 phases make up interphase? G1 S G2
What happens during G1? Organelles grow and replicate
What starts replication during G1 but dont finish until the end of G2? centrioles
What is the time of DNA synthesis called? S phase (synthesis)
What happens during G2? The cells functional focus shifts to producing proteins, enzymes and other molecules required to conduct mitosis
DNA duplication results in replicated chromosomes that appear as two sister chromatids joined as a common centromere
***stage*** Chromatin becomes visible as a round clump of purple/black dots/rods prophase
When is prophase considered to begin? At the moment when chromosomes first become visible
***stage*** nucleoli and the nuclear membrane disappear into the cytoplasm prophase
***stage*** centrioles separate and start their movement around the nucleus to opposite ends of the cell prophase
centrosomes are also called centrioles, asters, or spindle fibers
spindle apparatus is also called mitotic spindle
What is the spindle apparatus? a series of microtubles that form between the centrioles
What are the fibers radiating from the centrioles into the cytoplasm? astral rays
***stage*** centromeres of each chromosome line up on the equatorial plane between the two poles metaphase
***stage*** cebrineres split in half and each chromatid separates from its partner to become an individual chromosome anaphase
***stage*** the microtubules of the spindle apparatus arrached to the centromeres appear to be pulling the chromosomes to the poles anaphase
what is another name for the equatorial plane? metaphase plate
***stage*** basically the revers of prophase telophase
what landmark shows a cell is in telophase? cleavage furrow
***stage*** the two identical sets of chromosomes have reached the opposite poles telophase
***stage*** chromatids separate at their centromere region and become chromosomes anaphase
***stage*** astral rays and spindle fibers disappear telophase
***stage*** nuclear membrane is reformed telophase
***stage*** cell membrane begins to pinch inward telophase
***stage*** chromosomes line up on equatorial plane metaphase
***stage*** chromosomes become visible as the chromatin shortens and coils prophase
***stage*** formation of the cleavage furrow marks the end of this stage anaphase
***stage*** astral rays and spindle fibers develop prophase
***stage*** nuclear membrane and nucleoli disappear prophase
***stage*** centrioles separate and move to opposite ends of cells prophase
***stage*** spindle fibers contract pulling the chromosomes toward the poles anaphase
***stage*** chromosomes begin to uncoil and disappear from view telophase
***stage*** cytoplasm is divided among the two daughter cells telophase

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
