Match the following terms with the correct the definition. (Some terms may not be
used)
Mitosis mRNA Anaphase Meiosis Translation DNA
Metaphase tRNA Prophase Telophase Transcription
Cytokenesis RNA Chromosomes
1. Chromosomes line up at the center of the spindle. This results in a straight line of
chromosomes. This step is called _____________________.
2. In this phase, centromeres split. This is also known as _____________________.
3. _______________________ is prophase in reverse. Chromosomes are at opposite
ends of the cell and uncoil to become thread again; the spindle breaks down, a
nuclear envelope forms around each chromatin; and nucleoli appear in each
daughter nuclei.
4. By the end of this phase, nucleoli have broken down and disappeared and
chromosomes have attached to spindle fibers by their centromeres. This phase is
called _____________________.
5. When mitosis is just about complete, ____________________ occurs and results
in the formation of two nuclei with exactly the same genes.
6. ____________ is found in the nucleus and is genetic material.
7. ____________________ refers the division of a cell and results in the formation
of two identical daughter cells.
8. _____________________ involves the transfer of information from base
sequences in DNA to base sequences in mRNA.
9. _____________________ is a phase of protein synthesis which occurs in the
cytoplasm and involves three major varieties of RNA.
10. _______________ is a term that refers to the special type of nuclear division that
occurs mostly in the gonads.
