cell division- mitosis Flashcards
mitosis
1
Q
mitosis order
A
prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase
2
Q
prophase
A
-chromosomes get short, fat and visible
-each chromosome appears as sister chromatids
-nuclear membrane begins disappear
-fibres appear in the cytoplasm
-centrioles migrate to poles
3
Q
metaphase
A
-the sister chromatids attach to the spindle fibers with their centromeres
-they lie along equator
4
Q
anaphase
A
-the centriole contracts pulling spindle fibers
-sister chromatids separate
-chromosomes migrate towards the poles
5
Q
telophase
A
-chromosomes reach poles and form a compact group
-new nuclear membrane reforms
-spindle breaks down
-cytoplasm divides
=animal cells form a construction, cleavage furrow
=plant cells form cell plate, middle lamella?
