| 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 |
