Cards in this deck (6)
- 1InterphaseInterphase is when the DNA in the cell is copied
- 2Prophaseprophase is when the membrane around the nucleus breaks down
- 3MetaphaseMetaphase is when the chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell
- 4AnaphaseEach of the chromosomes x shaped spilt to form two single chromosomes. the single chromosomes move away from each other
