A | B |
interphase | first stage, cell grows, copies DNA, prepares for division |
mitosis | has four phases, nucleus divides |
prophase | first phase of mitosis, spindle fibers form |
metaphase | second phase of mitosis, chromosomes line up |
anaphase | third phase of mitosis-centromeres split |
telephase | last phase of mitosis |
cytokinesis | last stage of cell cycle-cell divides |
centromere | holds chromatids together |
chromosome | carries genetic materials in a rod like structure |
DNA replication | takes the most time |
centromere | holds chromatids together |
chromatids | contain chromatin |
double helix | structure of DNA |
DNA and RNA | nucleic acids |
