1. Cell Reproduction

2. Cell Reproduction – Mitosis 4.4
1. The M in M phase stands for __________.
2. Mitosis is the:
Division of the cell’s nucleus into 2 nuclei
3. Mitosis has 4 stages:
Prophase
Metaphase
Anaphase
Telophase
mitosis

3. Cytoplasmic Division
4. The cell’s cytoplasm divides to form the 2 new cells in the process called __________.
5. The 2 resulting cells are _________ to each other and to the ________ cell.
6. Each new cell has the ______ number of chromosomes as the original cell.
cytokinesis
identical
parent
same

4. Interphase Cell grows and prepares to divide. Performs
normal function.
(G1 phase)
DNA replication
(S phase)
Organelles copied and more
growth (G2 phase)

5. First phase of Mitosis-________
Prophase
Chromosomes become visible
Nuclear envelope dissolves
Centrioles move to opposite poles
Spindle begins to form

6. Metaphase Spindle attaches to the centromere of the chromosomes
Chromosomes line up along the equator of the cell

7. Anaphase
Centromeres divide
Chromosomes move toward opposite poles

8. Telophase Nuclear envelope forms around each set of chromosomes
Spindle dissolves
Chromosomes uncoil

9. __________
Cytokinesis
Cytoplasm divides
Two new daughter cells form
