Question

list what happens during each part of the cell cycle:
stage of cycle | phase of cell cycle | description
stage 1 | interphase | 5.
stage 2 (mitosis) | 6. | nuclear membrane dissolves, spindle fibers form and stretch across cell, chromosomes become visible
(mitosis) | metaphase | 7.
(mitosis) | 8. | chromosome pairs separate and move to opposite ends of the cell
(mitosis) | telophase | 9.
stage 3 | 10. | cytoplasm divides and 2 new cells are formed

1. result of mitosis: __________ identical cells with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell

Explanation:

This covers key events of the eukaryotic cell cycle, including interphase, mitotic stages, cytokinesis, and the outcome of mitosis. Each entry aligns with standard cell biological descriptions of these phases.

Answer:

Stage of Cycle	Phase of Cell Cycle	Description
Stage 2 (mitosis)	Prophase	Nuclear membrane dissolves, spindle fibers form and stretch across cell, chromosomes become visible
(mitosis)	Metaphase	Chromosomes line up at the cell's equatorial plate
(mitosis)	Anaphase	Chromosome pairs separate and move to opposite ends of the cell
(mitosis)	Telophase	Nuclear membranes reform, chromosomes unwind into chromatin, spindle fibers break down
Stage 3	Cytokinesis	Cytoplasm divides and 2 new cells are formed

1. Result of mitosis: Two identical cells with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell
