Prophase - $100 n What stage is before prophase? n Interphase

Prophase - $200 n What is the difference between prophase and interphase? n Chromosomes join together, spindle fibers begin to appear, nucleolus disappears, nuclear membrane disappears

Prophase - $300 n What are sister chromatids? n Structures that contain identical copies of DNA (Join to form chromosomes in prophase)

Prophase - $400 n What is the definition of a centromere? Where would the centromere be in this picture? A structure at the center of the chromosome where the sister chromatids are attached. n The middle, glowing circle. n

Prophase - $500 n What would happen if centromeres didn’t properly join the sister chromatids? n The daughter cells wouldn’t have enough DNA to survive or complete necessary functions.

Metaphase - $100 n What comes before metaphase? n Prophase

Metaphase - $200 n What happens in metaphase that is different from prophase? n Chromosomes attach to the spindle apparatus and line up in the middle

Metaphase - $300 n What is the spindle apparatus? n The structure including the spindle fibers, the centrioles, and the aster fibers

Metaphase - $400 n Where are the chromosomes lined up? n The equator

Metaphase - $500 n What would happen if only some of the chromosomes lined up in the middle? n The cell wouldn’t have accurate chromosomes and, if the chromosomes were vital, would not survive.

Anaphase - $100 n What comes before anaphase? n Metaphase

Anaphase - $200 n What’s different between anaphase and metaphase? n Microtubules shorten, chromosomes split apart and move to opposite poles.

Anaphase - $300 n What are microtubules? n Structures in a cell that are typically used for transportation.

Anaphase - $400 n What do motor proteins do? n Help move the chromosomes to the opposite poles of the cell.

Anaphase - $500 n What would happen if only some of the chromosomes were separated and pulled apart? n The daughter cells would have the wrong amounts of chromosomes and could not correctly develop.

Telophase - $100 n What comes before telophase? n anaphase

Telophase - $200 n What’s different between telophase and anaphase? n Chromosomes reach the poles, Nuclear envelope reforms, the nucleolus reforms, and chromosomes decondense.

Telophase - $300 n What is the nuclear membrane? n The border of the nucleus

Telophase - $400 n What isn’t fully complete by the end of telophase? n Cellular division

Telophase - $500 n What would happen if the nuclear membrane did not reform? n The chromosomes would not be properly contained and the daughter cells might not have the ability to complete necessary functions that happen within the nucleus.
