|
Cytoskeleton |
network of fine protein fibers that support cells that contain a nucleus |
|
|
Endoplasmic Reticulum |

|
|
Cell Cycle |
Prophase: -nuclear membrane disintegrates -Nucleolus disentegrates -No protein synthesis Metaphase: -chromosomes migrate to the equator -attach to the spindle Anaphase: -chromosomes segregate to each pole Telephase: -nucleolus reappears -protein synthesis Cytokinesis (division of organelles) |
