Back

Centromere.

Front

What is the first phase of mitosis?

Back

Prophase.

Front

What is the correct order of mitosis phases?

Back

Front

In which phase do chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell?

Back

Metaphase.

Front

What phase follows metaphase in mitosis?

Back

Anaphase.

Front

What is the final phase of mitosis?

Back

Telophase.

Front

What is cytokinesis?

Back

The process where the cytoplasm of a parental cell divides into two daughter cells.

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 the spindle fibers during mitosis?

Back

They help separate the chromosomes during cell division.

Front

What occurs during anaphase?

Back

Sister chromatids are pulled apart to opposite poles of the cell.
