FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What are the main phases of mitosis?

Back

The main phases of mitosis are prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.

3.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What occurs during prophase?

Back

During prophase, chromosomes become visible, the nuclear envelope breaks down, and spindle fibers begin to form.

4.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What happens in metaphase?

Back

In metaphase, chromosomes align in the middle of the cell, attached to spindle fibers.

5.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is anaphase?

Back

Anaphase is the stage of mitosis where sister chromatids are pulled apart to opposite ends of the cell.

6.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What occurs during telophase?

Back

During telophase, chromosomes uncoil back into chromatin, the nuclear envelope reappears, and spindle fibers disappear.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is cytokinesis?

Back

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