Mitosis science test

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

questions/ trems
answers/definitions
where dose mitosis take place   in human body (somatic) cells  
🗑
mitosis   chromosomes multiply and divide when the cell reproduces producing daughter cells that are identical to parent cell  
🗑
chromatin   uncoiled strands of DNA  
🗑
chromosomes   coiled chromatin; contains genes  
🗑
homologous pairs   chromosome pairs that are structurally similar and contain information for some genes; (can different expression of information on those genes)  
🗑
mitosis occurs in human body (somatic) cells   these are every cell but the egg or sperm  
🗑
How many cells dose somatic (body) cells have   46 cells  
🗑
how many homologous chromosome pairs are there   23 pairs  
🗑
diploid cells   contain all homologous pairs of chromosomes  
🗑
Interphase   chromosomes (in form of chromatin) and organelles replicate  
🗑
Mitosis   chromosomes divide  
🗑
Prophase   chromatin coils into chromosomes (hint: each chromosomes now is made up of 2 chromatids joined by a centromere)  
🗑
prophase   nuclear membrane disappears  
🗑
Metaphase   chromosomes move to the center of the cell (the equator)  
🗑
Anaphase   chromosomes divide and chromatids separate (pulled apart)  
🗑
anaphase   chromatides are pulled to opposite sides pulled by spindle fibers  
🗑
telophase   centroles and spindle fibers disappear  
🗑
telophase   chromaatids unwind back into chromatin  
🗑
telophase   neclear membrane reforms  
🗑
cytokinesis   cytoplasm starts to divide into new cells and parent cells divide  
🗑
cytokinesis   there are now 2 daughter cells that have DNA identical to the parent cell  
🗑


   

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.
