Cell Cycle
Interphase
oS Phase
Synthesis, once the decision to divide has been made, all genetic
information in the cell is replicated/duplicated
oG2 Phase
Preparing/creating components for cell division
oNon dividing cell
Mitosis
oProphase
Chromosome coil up and condense, centrioles divide and move apart
oPrometaphase
Chromosomes are clearly double structures; centrioles reach the opposite
poles; spindle fiber forms
oMetaphase
Centromeres align on metaphase plate
Nuclear envelope completely dissolved
Chromosomes, all 4, 2 homologous pairs, aligning independently at
metaphase plate
oAnaphase
Centromeres split and daughter chromosomes migrate to opposite poles
Sister chromatids separate
oTelophase
Daughter chromosomes arrive at the poles; cytokinesis commences
Spindle apparatus break down
Independent event; cytokinesis
G1
G0
oNever divide again
1 Chromosome, 2 sister chromatids
oSister chromatids identical

Document Summary
Synthesis, once the decision to divide has been made, all genetic information in the cell is replicated/duplicated: g2 phase. Preparing/creating components for cell division: non dividing cell. Chromosome coil up and condense, centrioles divide and move apart: prometaphase. Chromosomes are clearly double structures; centrioles reach the opposite poles; spindle fiber forms: metaphase. Chromosomes, all 4, 2 homologous pairs, aligning independently at metaphase plate: anaphase. Centromeres split and daughter chromosomes migrate to opposite poles. Daughter chromosomes arrive at the poles; cytokinesis commences. 1 chromosome, 2 sister chromatids: sister chromatids identical o. Body is built from cells generated through many rounds of meiosis. Homologous chromosomes will pair up in meiosis ; prophase 1 (unique) Prophase 1; leptonema: chromosomes begin to condense as meiosis begins. Prophase 1; zygonema: centrioles being to move to polar positions, homologs separate. Prophase 1; pachynema: tetrad (first become visible) consists of two homologous chromosomes, each composed of two sister chromatids. Look like a group of 4 during alignment.
