---|---|---|
What is Interphase
The First Stage of Mitosis
|
What is Metaphase
The Phase where the Sister Chromatids line up at the Equator of the Spindle
|
What is the Cell Cycle
A sequence of Growth and Division of a Cell
|
What is Anaphase
The 3rd stage of Mitosis
|
What is the Nucleolus
The Inner part of the Nucleus that lies in Interphase

What is Chromatin
Long Strands of DNA wrapped around Proteins
|
What is Prophase
The Second Stage of Mitosis
|
What is Anaphase
When two distinct Daughter Cells are formed and the Cell separates and enters the next Interphase
