Mitosis Flashcards
1
Q
What happens in Interphase?
A
Cell growth and DNA replication.
2
Q
What happens in prophase?
A
Chromosomes condense and duplicate, centrosomes move to opposite sides, nuclear envelope breaks down.
3
Q
What happens in metaphase?
A
Sister chromatids line up, centrosomes on opposite poles, mitotic spindle fibers attach to sister chromatids.
4
Q
What happens in anaphase?
A
Sister chromatids separate, spindle fibre shortens.
5
Q
What happens in telophase?
A
Cleavage furrow forms, chromosomes lose visibility and nucleoli reappear.
6
