|
Chromosome
|
condensed form of DNA that is visible during cell division
|
|
|
Sister Chromatids
|
the 2 copies of DNA that make up the chromosome
|
|
|
Centromere
|
where the 2 sister chromatids attach
|
|
|
Cell cycle
|
life cycle of a cell during which it grows. prepares to divide and forms 2 daughter cell
|
|
|
Interphase
|
cell growth in between cell division
|
|
|
G1 Phase
|
most of cell growth occurs here while cell increases size and creates organelles
|
|
|
S Phase
|
DNA replication take place
|
|
|
G2 Phase
|
shortest phase of Interphase, make more organelles and molecules needed for cell division
|
|
|
M phase
|
cell division
|
|
|
Mitosis
|
nuclear division
|
|
|
Prophase
|
1st stage, chromosomes become visible and nuclear envolope break down
|
|
|
Metaphase
|
2nd stage, centrioles line up and poles of cell
|
|
|
Anaphase
|
3rd stage, chromosomes separate and pull apart from each other
|
|
|
Telophase
|
nuclear membrane forms around sister chromatids
|
|
|
Cytokinesis
|
second and last step on M-phase, cystoplasm divides
|
