Chapter 11: The Cell Cycle and Mitosis – Review

Click a question to reveal the answer.

Growth, tissue repair/replacement, and asexual reproduction.
A simple form of cell division in prokaryotes where one cell replicates its DNA and splits into two identical cells.
Interphase, mitosis, and cytokinesis.
Interphase.
G1 (and also G2).
Mitosis.
S phase.
Cytokinesis.
Interphase (chromatin).
G1, S, and G2.
Two identical copies of a chromosome joined at the centromere.
They organize spindle fibers and move to opposite poles of the cell.
They separate sister chromatids by pulling them to opposite sides of the cell.
Kinetochores and centrioles.
Prophase → Metaphase → Anaphase → Telophase.
Prophase.
Metaphase.
Anaphase.
Telophase.
Division of the cytoplasm to form two daughter cells.
A cleavage furrow (animal cells) pinches inward. A cell plate (plant cells) forms a new cell wall.
