46

Front

What is the phase before Anaphase?

Back

Metaphase

Front

What is the phase where chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell?

Back

Metaphase

Front

What happens during Prophase?

Back

Chromatin condenses into visible chromosomes, and the nuclear envelope begins to break down.

Front

What is the role of spindle fibers during Mitosis?

Back

They help separate the chromosomes during Anaphase.

Front

What is the significance of Telophase?

Back

It marks the end of Mitosis, where the chromosomes de-condense and the nuclear envelope re-forms.
