Front

What are the stages of mitosis in order?

Back

Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase

Front

Back

4

Front

What phase of the cell cycle prepares the cell for mitosis?

Back

G2 phase

Front

What is the definition of Interphase?

Back

The phase of the cell cycle where the cell prepares for mitosis, including G1, S, and G2 phases.

Front

What happens during Prophase?

Back

Chromatin condenses into chromosomes, the nuclear envelope breaks down, and spindle fibers begin to form.

Front

What occurs during Metaphase?

Back

Chromosomes align at the cell's equatorial plane, and spindle fibers attach to the centromeres.

Front

What is Anaphase?

Back

The stage where sister chromatids are pulled apart to opposite poles of the cell.

Front

What happens during Telophase?

Back

Chromatids reach the poles, the nuclear envelope re-forms, and chromosomes begin to de-condense.

Front

What is Cytokinesis?

Back

The process that follows mitosis, where the cytoplasm divides, resulting in two daughter cells.
