Phases of Mitosis
Cards in this deck (5)
- 1ProphaseThe nuclear membrane starts to break down.
The centrioles start to move to the poles of the cell and make spindle fibres.
Chromosomes super coil and condense and becomes visible, appears as 2 identical sister chromatids joined at the centromere. - 2MetaphaseCentrioles complete the production of spindle fibres.
Chromosomes are attached to the spindle fibres by thier centromere.
Chromosomes align down the equator of the cell. - 3AnaphaseSpindle fibres contract.
Centromeres splits.
Identical chromatids are pulled to opposite poles, making a 'v' shape. - 4Telophasenuclear membrane starts to form around each set of chromosomes.
the chromatids becomes invisible. - 5Cytokinesisthe surface membrane pinches together and 2 daughter cells form.
