Cell Cycle

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
Prophase   The nuclear membrane starts to degenerate, the chromatin condenses into individual chromosomes (1st phase)  
🗑
Metaphase   Start to see sister chromatids attach to the spindle fibers and line up along the equator of the cell  
🗑
G 1 Phase   Initial growth phase during which the cell grows, develops, and carries out activities specific to the cell type  
🗑
Cleavage Furrow   Divot between two cells  
🗑
Interphase   Cell does its normal daily activities: growth, protein synthesis, cellular respiration, etc.  
🗑
Anaphase   Spindle fiber shorten, pulls centromeres apart, sister chromatids migrate to the opposite ends  
🗑
G2 Phase   second growth stage, cell makes final preparations for cell division  
🗑
Centrioles and Mitotic Spindles   Forms during prophase in this they begin migrating to opposite poles of the cells  
🗑
S Phase   Period in which the cell's DNA is replicated  
🗑
Homologous Chromosomes   Chromosomes, humans have 23 pairs of them  
🗑
Cytokinesis   the cell elongates  
🗑
Sister Chromatids   homologous chromosomes, set of "identical twins"  
🗑
Telophase   divot forms between the two cells (cleavage furrow), cell pinches into two identical daughter cells  
🗑
Mitosis   Cellular Division  
🗑
Daughter Cells   The two new cells after mitosis  
🗑
G 0 Phase   atomic cells: said to be in the "G not" phase  
🗑


   

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.
