Prophase

the centrioles separate releasing the spindle fibers. Chromosomes are formed within the nucleus. The nuclear envelope starts to disintegrate.

New cards

Metaphase

The Nuclear envelope and nucleolus disintegrate; the chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell. The spindle fibers attach to the centromeres

New cards

Interphase

The centriole duplicates. The cell grows, performs normal cell functions, and DNA replicates. Then, the cell prepares for cell division

Anaphase

the cell elongates; the spindle fibers pull the chromosomes apart into sister chromatids

Cytokinesis

active cell divides and forms two separate cells that each start their own cell cycle

New cards

Telophase

The two nuclear envelopes form around the chromatids and the chromosomes uncoil; the spindle fibers disperse and the membrane starts to pull apart.
