What is anaphase?

• A stage of mitosis where chromosome line up across the middle of the cell.

• A stage of mitosis where the genetic information gets duplicated.

• A stage of mitosis where the nuclear envelop reforms.

• A stage of mitosis where the chromosomes get pulled to opposite ends of the cell.

What is a centriole?

• A point where sister chromatids attach.

• A structure from which spindle fibers extend.

• A complex of DNA and a protein.

• A bundle of packaged DNA.

Which phase of mitosis has chromosomes line up across the middle of the cell?

• prophase

• metaphase

• anaphase

• telophase

During prophase

• DNA lines up in the middle of the cell and DNA attaches to spindle fibers

• centrioles and spindle fibers appear

• 2 new identical cells are created

• DNA gets copied

During telophase

• DNA lines up in the middle of the cell and DNA attaches to spindle fibers
