Mitosis Review and Study Guide
o
Take a look at the following pie graph. To help you remember the different ‘phases’ making up the
life cycle of the cell, please fill in the blanks with the appropriate ‘phases/stages’. Trust me, it
will help!

make up what
“phase”?

4. __________________________
o
This cell is in the ______ (1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th) stage of mitosis, called:
_____________________.
o
What happens during each of the following stages of Interphase?
G1: ____________________________________________________________________________
S: _____________________________________________________________________________
G2: ____________________________________________________________________________
o
Now for some practice…. Label each of the following phases as prophase, metaphase, anaphase or
telophase.
o
How do bacterial cells (prokaryotic cell) reproduce? __________________________________
o
What is the difference between prokaryotic genetic material and eukaryotic genetic material? __
_________________________________________________________________________
o
When do cell plates and cleavage furrows form? _________________________ Which occurs
in plants? _______________________________ In animals? _________________________
o
When offspring has the same exact genetic information as the parents it is called a :
_________________
o
A photomicrograph of chromosomes arrested during metaphase is a called a:
_________________________________
o
The disk-shaped protein found near the centromere region of the chromosome, which has fibers
allowing the chromatids to separate, is called a: ________________________
o
Mitosis adds cells to tissues/organs in eukaryotic multicellular organisms and serves as a method
of _______________________ in eukaryotic unicellular organisms.
o
During which phase of mitosis does cytokinesis actually occur? __________________________
o
In which phase of mitosis do all of the fibers appear while the nucleolus and nuclear membrane
break down? __________________________
o
Mitosis means “division of the _____________________” while cytokinesis means “division of
the ________________________”.
