Definition
| The process of nuclear division. This if followed by cytokinesis will create two gentically indentical diploid cells. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| The division of the cytoplasm following mitosis. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| The part of the cell cycle when active division is not occuring includes: G1, S and G2 phases. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| The first phase of mitosis, chromatin condenses into chromosomes and the mitotic spindle and asters form. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| The second phase of mitosis, during which the chromosomes are arranged along the metaphase plate. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| The third phase of mitosis, during which the sister chromatids are pulled toward the centrosomes at oppisite poles. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| The final phase of mitosis during which new nuclei begin to form around the collections of chromosomes. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| The repeating process of cell division consisting of the G1, S, G2 phases and mitosis and cytokinesis. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| The first stage following division, the cell is metabolizing and growing. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| Following the G1 phase, in this phase DNA is replicated and sister chromatid is created. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| The nondividing state a cell will enter if it doesn't enter the G1 Phase. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| The phase of the cell cycle following the S phase. During this phase metabolism and cell growth continue. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| The phase of the cell cycle during which mitosis occurs. DNA is in chromosome form. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| A structure formed as the elongated animal cell is being pinched into two seperate diploid cells during cytokinesis. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| A pair of perpendicularly arranged centrioles that establish at opposite poles of a cell during division. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| The region in replicated chromosomes connecting the two identical sister chromatids. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| The apparatus of microtubules and proteins that permit for chromosome movement during mitosis. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| A plane equal distance from each pole of a cell upon which chromosomes line up. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| An identical replicated chromosome attached to another one via the centromere. |
|
|
Term
| Single-strand Binding Protein |
|
Definition
| A protein that helps stabilize the two strands of DNA after they have been exposed to helicse but before they have been read and paired by DNA polymerase during DNA replication. |
