Mitosis & Meiosis Review Two Cell Division Processes
Interphase happens BEFORE Mitosis or Meiosis. Most of a cells’ life is spent in interphase.
The cell doubles in size DNA is copied
Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase
The nuclear membrane disappears Chromosomes wind up.
The chromosomes line up along the equator (middle) of the cell.
Chromosomes are pulled apart so one copy goes to each side of the cell.
Nuclear membranes form around each set of chromosomes Chromosomes unwind
Two cells, which are identical to each other and the parent cell. Body Cells.
They make more cells They go through Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, and Telophase at least once.
Mitosis makes 2 cells Meiosis makes 4 cells Meiosis goes through each phase twice.
The process by which prokaryotes make more of themselves when one cell divides into two identical cells.
If a body cell has 20 chromosomes, how many will be in the sex cell?
