F. Some Terminology to Know: This is for Hye Ji's use! (Copy and paste this into a word processor for your personal use or to print it!)

*Be able to identify each of the different phases of mitosis and cytokinesis (interphase, prophase, metaphase, anaphase and telophase) and important features to be seen these different stages (like equator, poles, centrioles, spindle fibers, cleavage furrow, cell plate, sister chromatids, centromeres, etc....)
