MITOSIS VIRTUAL LAB


1. Which stage does the following occur
Chromatin condenses into chromosomes Interphase
Chromosomes align in center of cell. Metaphase
Longest part of the cell cycle. Prophase
Nuclear envelope breaks down. Prometaphase
Cell is cleaved into two new daughter cells. Cytokenisis
Daughter chromosomes arrive at the poles. Telophase

2. The colored chromosomes represent chromatids. There are two of each color because one is an exact duplicate of the other.

How many chromosomes are visible at the beginning of mitosis? 46

How many are in each daughter cell at the end of mitosis? 46

The little green T shaped things on the cell are: centrioles

What happens to the centrioles during mitosis? Protein spindles form and move to the other side of the cell.
