Mitosis

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Term
Definition
Mitosis   cell division  
🗑
Chromosome   tightly coiled DNA (easy to move)  
🗑
Chromatin   loosely coiled DNA (easy to read)  
🗑
Chromatid   chromosomes after they split  
🗑
Centriole   DNA "fishing pole" (used to move DNA)  
🗑
Spindle Fiber   DNA "fishing line" (used to move DNA)  
🗑
Centromere   holds sister chromatids together  
🗑
Nucleus   contains DNA  
🗑
Sister Chromatids   identical pieces of chromosome  
🗑
Parent Cell   the original cell  
🗑
Daughter Cells   the "offspring" of a parent cell  
🗑
DNA   instructions for a cell's life  
🗑
Genes   pieces of DNA that code for traits  
🗑
Interphase   G1 S and G2 phases of the cell cycle  
🗑
Prophase   the beginning of mitosis; chromosomes, spindle fibers, and centrioles form; nucleus dissolves  
🗑
Metaphase   chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell; spindle fibers attach at centromeres  
🗑
Anaphase   spindle fibers shorten and chromosomes are pulled to each pole  
🗑
Telophase   centrioles and spindle fibers dissolve; a new nucleus forms  
🗑
Cytokinesis   cell splits into two fully independent cells  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
