The Cell Cycle, Cell Cycle Latest 2024 Rated A+ cytokinesis Complete separation of the 2 new cells resulting from mitosis. interphase Period of time where a cell carries on metabolism and replicates chromosomes prior to cell division prophase Chromatin condenses into chromosomes metaphase Chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell anaphase Sister chromatids separate telophase After the chromosome seperates, the cell seals off, Final Phase of Mitosis. chromatid Each half of the chromosome chromosome A doubled rod of condensed chromatin; contains DNA that carries genetic information centromere Area where the chromatids of a chromosome are attached asexual reproduction Process by which a single parent reproduces by itself cell cycle An ordered sequence of events in the life of a eukaryotic cell, from its origin in the division of a parent cell until its own division into two. G1 phase interphase stage of cell cycle where cell grow and synthesizes proteins G2 phase interphase stage of cell cycle where cell grows and prepares to go into mitosis phase S phase interphase stage of cell cycle where cell replicates DNA Mitosis stage of cell cycle where the cell divides Picture of prophase DNA fist condenses and forms chromosomes Picture of metaphase Chromosomes line up at the equator of the cell. Picture of anaphase Sister chromatids get pulled apart Picture of telophase Two nuclei start to re-form, cleavage begins to form. Picture of cytokinesis The division of the cytoplasm. Centriole organelle the sends out spindle fibers. Only found in animal cells Spindle fiber emerge from centrioles, attach to chromosomes to pull them apart during mitosis Purpose of mitosis organisms' growth, damage repair, asexual reproduction in single celled organisms Cleavage furrow Pinching of the cytoplasm. Only occurs in animal cells Cell plate Origins of the cell wall. Found only in plants and fungi.
