Mitosis Schumacher

Mitosis Meiosis

QuestionAnswer
The double-layered membrane surrounding the nucleus of a eukaryotic cell, separating the nucleoplasm from the cytoplasm. Nuclear membrane
A star-shaped cluster of microtubules radiating from the pericentriolar region, and seen immediately before and during mitosis of an animal cell. aster
a thin flexible barrier that surrounds all cells cell membrane
threadlike structure of DNA and protein that contains genetic information; in eukaryotes, chromosomes are found in the nucleus; in prokaryotes, they are found in the cytoplasm chromosome
Each DNA strand in the duplicated chromosome chromatid
substance found in eukaryotic chromosomes that consists of DNA tightly coiled around histones chromatin
the point at which the chromatids attach along their length centromere
Spindle fibers extend from a region called the centrosome where these tiny paired structures are located centriole
Any of a network of filaments that collectively form a mitotic spindle (in mitosis) and meiotic spindle (in meiosis). It is chiefly involved in moving and segregating the chromosomes during nuclear division. spindle fibers
in eukaryotic cells, all cellular contents outside the nucleus; in prokaryotic cells, all of the cells' contents cytoplasm
A groove formed from the cell membrane in a dividing cell as the contractile ring tightens. cleavage furrow
During this phase, the chromosomes separate and move along the spindle fibers to opposite ends of the cell. anaphase
During this phase, the genetic material inside the nucleus condenses and the duplicated chromosomes become visible. Outside of the nucleus, a spindle starts to form. prophase
During telophase, the chromosomes, which were distinct and condensed, begin to spread out into a tangle of chromatin. telophase
During this phase, the centromeres of the duplicated chromosomes line up across the center of the cell. Spindle fibers connect the centromere of each chromosome to the two poles of the spindle. metaphase

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.
