Cell Cycle Vocab

AB
mitosisnuclear division
cytokinesiscytoplasm division
prophasefirst phase of mitosis, spindle forms, nuclear membrane disappears
metaphasesister chromatids align at the center of the cell
anaphasesister chromatids pulled apart and move to the ends of the cell
telophasereverse of prophase, spindle disapperas and nuclear membrane reappears
cleavage furrowanimal cells split apart following telophase
cell plateplant cells do not split apart due to the cell plate that will form the cell wall
cell cycleinterphase, mitosis, and cytokinesis
interphasewhere the cell spends the marjority of its time, cell is growing, not dividing
G1 phasepart of interphase where cell growth occrus
S phasepart of interphase where DNA is repliacated
G2 phasepart of interphase where centrioles are duplicated and cell prepares to divide
G1Checkpoint that checks nutrient and growth factors
G2checkpoint that checks for DNA replication
Metaphasecheckpoint that checks for spindle attachement to chromosomes
centrosomemicrotubule organizing center
necrosiscells killed from toxins
apoptosisprogrammed cell death
