1. During this phase of mitosis, the chromosomes are moved by the spindle fibers to line up in the
middle of the cell.
2. Begins to form as the cell membrane pinches together in the middle during telophase.
3. Forms in a plant cell during telophase allowing it to split. It forms because the cell wall does not
allow the membrane to pinch in the middle.
4. This organelle is what spindle fibers grow from as they move to opposite poles.
5. This process lasts 24 hours. It is the full process of the growth and division of a cell.
6. The separation of cytoplasm to completely form two separate cells.
7. Two identical cells that are formed from a cell that just underwent mitosis.
8. During this phase of mitosis, the spindle fibers connect to the chromosomes at the centromere.
9. The uncoiled DNA in the nucleus. Free floating genetic material.
10. The classic X shaped genetic material that is pulled in half during the mitotic phase.
11. During this phase of mitosis, the spindle fibers pull the chromosomes in half.
12. Half of a chromosome.
13. Grows out of the centriole and connects to the chromosomes. It pulls the chromosomes apart.
14. During this phase of mitosis, the nuclear membrane disappears and the chromatin coils into
chromosomes.
15. During this phase of mitosis, the nuclear membrane reforms around the DNA.
16. This phase of the cell cycle is responsible for the division of the nucleus.
17. This phase of the cell cycle is responsible for cell growth and preparing it for cell division again.
18. The place on a chromosome what holds each chromatid together and it is the site where spindle
fibers attach.
