Mitosis

Question 1

stages

Answer 1

prophase
prometaphase
metaphase
anaphase
telophase

Question 2

prophase

Answer 2

chromosomes begin to condense and become visible in the nucleus

Question 3

prometaphase

Answer 3

chromosomes shorten and thicken and condense more

spindle fibers attach to kinetochores

nuclear membrane disappears

Question 4

metaphase

Answer 4

chromosomes line up in the center of the cell

Question 5

anaphase

Answer 5

chromosomes split (sister chromatids go separate ways)

each sister chromatid is now considered its own chromosome

Question 6

telophase

Answer 6

the chromosomes in two separate sets start to decondense

after this they will be invisible in the daughter cells

Question 7

cytokinesis

Answer 7

microfilaments tighten around the cell and pinch it into 2

nuclear membranes reform in daughter cells and chromosomes decondense

in plants, after this, a cell wall still has to grow between daughter cells

Question 8

mitosis has __ DNA replication followed by __ cell division

Answer 8

one, one
