The list below describes some of the events associated with normal cell division.
1. Nuclear membrane formation around each set of newly formed chromosomes
2. Centrioles move to poles and nuclear envelope disappears
3. Replication of each chromosome
4. Movement of single stranded chromosomes to opposite ends of the spindle.
What is the normal sequence in which these events occur?

• 3-4-2-1
• 1-2-3-4
• 3-2-4-1
• 4-3-1-2
