Q

Chromosomes become more visible as they become compact and tightly coiled

A

prophase

17
Q

Two separate strands of DNA joined at a single point called the centromere

A

chromatids

18
Q

The mitotic spindle is formed by proteins from the cytoplasm that organize into many fiber-like threads

A

prophase

19
Q

Centriole migration and spindle formation is complete

A

metaphase

20
Q

Chromosomes align at the exact equator of the spindle

A

metaphase

21
Q

A spindle fiber originating from each spindle is attached to the centromere of each chromosome

A

metaphase

22
Q

Chromosomes split apart at the centromere, separating sister chromatids

A

anaphase

23
Q

The separate chromatids are now considered daughter chromosomes

A

anaphase

24
Q

Daughter chromosomes move gradually toward opposite poles of each spindle

A

anaphase

25
Q

The groups of daughter chromosomes are congregated at opposite poles of the spindle

A

anaphase

26
Q

Cytokinesis has begun

A

anaphase

27
Q

Cytokinesis becomes obvious, continues gradually to completion

A

telophase

28
Q

Chromosomes become gradually less distinct as the uncoil back into chromatin

A

telophase
