• During ____________________ the nuclear membrane dissolves and
the DNA thickens into ____________________.

middle of the cell.
DNA

• During ____________________ the chromosomes split in half —
each half moves to the opposite side of the cell.
• During ____________________ the nuclear membrane reforms so the

The following paragraph describes how cells multiply. Fill in the blanks with the
correct word.
When a baby animal grows, its cells don’t get bigger — instead, the

cells reproduce so the animal has many more cells. Cells reproduce
related to cells
by dividing in two. Before a cell can divide it must grow bigger and

DNA thicken so you can see the chromosomes with a microscope.
This is called ____________________. Then the chromosomes
attach to spindle fibres and line up in the middle of the cell. This is
called ____________________. Next the chromosomes split into
identical halves and the spindle fibres shorten, pulling the
