The Cell Cycle
Tennessee State Standards Addressed Grade 7 GLE Illustrate how cell division occurs in sequential stages to maintain the chromosome number of a species. SPI Sequence a series of diagrams that depict chromosome movement during plant cell division.

Interphase During Interphase, the cell’s chromosomes duplicate. This is the phase that occurs BEFORE mitosis begins. A period of Growth Take Quiz
Mitosis is the part the cell cycle in which the NUCLEUS divides There are 4 phases of Mitosis… –Prophase –Metaphase –Anaphase –Telophase –Or…PMAT
Prophase Prophase is the FIRST phase of Mitosis The nuclear membrane has disappeared Chromosomes have condensed and shortened Centrioles move to opposite ends of the cell (in Animal cells ONLY) Plant cells do NOT have Centrioles
Metaphase Metaphase is the Second phase of Mitosis Chromatids line up in the MIDDLE of the cell Spindle fibers attach to the Centromeres
Anaphase Anaphase is the THIRD phase of Mitosis Each pair of chromatids separate, because the spindle fibers begin to shorten The separated chromatids are now called chromosomes
Telophase Telophase is the LAST phase of Mitosis TWO NEW NUCLEI form, but the two new cells are still connected Spindle fibers start to disappear In plants, a cell plate forms between the two new cells
Cytokinesis Cytokinesis occurs after the last phase of Mitosis The CYTOPLASM separates and two new cells form In plants, new Cell Membranes form from the Cell Plate Take Quiz
