| A | B |
| G1 | normal 1st part of interphase in cell cycle |
| S | 2nd step in interphase cell cycle, DNA replication begins |
| G1, S and then? | G2 |
| prophase | chromosomes "pairs" first visible |
| metaphase | chromosomes line up in the middle |
| anaphase | sister chromatids separate , move apart |
| telophase | 2 nuclear membranes begin to form |
| cytokinesis | cutting in half of the cytoplasm |
| mitosis | occurs in the nucleus only |
| cell plate | plant cells have this during cytokinesis instead of a cell wall |
| cleavage furrow | animal cell cytokinesis, cytoplasm pinches in |
| spindle fibers | push and pull chromosomes around dring mitosis |
| chromatin | thin strands of genetic material that will form chromosomes |
| 2 identical cells | goal of the mitosis process |
| interphase | cells spend most their time in this phase |
