The ____________ in the nucleus contain the genes which control cell activities

Chromosomes

What type of reproduction is mitosis?

Asexual reproduction

Cell theory says that all cells are created from other ________

cells

What is the longest phase of the cell cycle?

Interphase

In what phase of mitosis do the chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell?

Metaphase

In what phase of mitosis does the nuclear envelope dissolve, the chromosomes become visible, and the cell prepares to divide?

Prophase

In what phase of mitosis does the nuclear envelope reappear around two new identical sets of DNA?

Telophase

In what phase of the cell cycle do the two new identical daughter cells split apart to become two individual cells?

Cytokinesis

The type of asexual reproduction where a piece breaks or splits off and becomes a new organism is defined as:

Binary fission

In what phase of mitosis do the spindle fibers pull the chromatids apart to opposite ends of the cell?

Anaphase

In organisms that are eukaryotic, where does mitosis begin?

Nucleus
