|
stage of mitosis when sister chromatids separate to opposite sides of the cell

|
|
cell cycle
|
time when a cell grows (G1), replicates its DNA(S phase), prepares for division/mitosis(G2), and divides to form two daughter cells (M phase)
|
|
|
cell division
|
process by which a cell divides into two new daughter cells
|
|
|
cytokinesis
|
division or splitting of the cytoplasm into two separate cells
|
|
|
interphase

|
|
|
metaphase
|
stage of mitosis when the chromosomes line up in the center of the cell & spindle fibers attach to the chromosomes
|
|
|
mitosis
|
part of eukaryotic cell division during which the cell nucleus divides
|
|
|
prophase
|
stage of mitosis in which the nuclear membrane begins to break down, the chromatin condenses into chromosomes, the centrioles separate, and the spindle begins to form
|
|
|
telophase
