Q

The chromosome can be clearly seen to consist of a pair of sister
chromatids joined at the centromere. Chromatid is one of the two identical “sister”
parts of a duplicated chromosome. The nucleolus disappears and the nuclear
membrane starts to break down. The spindle microtubules start to form from the
centrosomes moving towards the opposite poles. The chromatids are now attached
to the spindle microtubules. They start pulling the chromosomes toward the center
of the cell ready for the next step

Q

Chromosomes are aligned at
the middle of the cell. All the chromosomes are attached to the spindle microtubules
which are now fully developed. The nuclear membrane has broken. The centrosomes
are located at the opposite poles.

A

15
Q

The sister chromatids separate from their partners. Each chromatid is now
considered a daughter chromosome. Microtubules attached to the centromere are
shortened bringing the chromosomes toward the opposite poles. While microtubules
not attached to the chromosome grow longer, pushing the poles farther apart.

16
Q

Distinct individual chromosomes
begin to spread out into a tangle of chromatin. The spindle disappears, two nuclear
envelopes reform (one around each set of daughter chromosomes), the chromosomes
uncoil and lengthen, and the nucleoli reappear. Mitosis, the division of one nucleus
into two genetically identical daughter nuclei, is now finished

A

Telophase

17
Q

completes the division process by dividing the cytoplasm into two
daughter cells, each with a nucleus

A

Cytokinesis

18
Q
