10-2 Cell Division

QuestionAnswer
What are the main events of the cell cycle? During the cell cycle, a cell grows, prepares for division, and divides to form two daughter cells, each of which then begins the cycle again.
What are the four phases of mitosis? prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase
What are chromosomes made of? DNA and proteins
In eukaryotes, cell division is more complex and occurs in two main stages. What are these two main stages? mitosis and cytokinesis
What happens during the G1 phase? Cells increase in size and synthesize new proteins and organelles.
What is the function of the spindle? It helps separate the chromosomes.
What is cytokinesis? The second stage of cell division in eukaryotes, and is the division of cytoplasm.
What is mitosis? The first stage of cell division in eukaryotes, and is the division of the nucleus.
What happens during interphase? The cell grows and replicates its DNA and centrioles.
What happens during Prophase? The chromatin condenses into chromosomes. The centrioles separate, and a spindle begins to form. The nuclear envelope breaks down.
What phase of mitosis is Anaphase? Third
What are two tiny structures located in the cytoplasm near the nuclear envelope? Centrioles
What happens in the Metaphase phase? The chromosomes line up across the center of the cell. Each chromosome is connected to a spindle fiber at its centromere.
Where are Centromeres usually located? Near the middle of the chromatids, although some lie near the ends
What does cytokinesis mean? It means "movement within the cell".
