G₁ phase (Gap 1 phase)
Cell grows and makes proteins.
S phase (Synthesis phase)
DNA replication occurs, doubling the number of chromosomes.
G₂ phase (Gap 2 phase)
More cell growth and protein synthesis.
Prophase
Chromosomes condense and are visible as sister chromatids, nuclear membrane disappears, spindle fibers form out of centrioles.
Metaphase
Spindle fibers connect to the centromere of each sister chromatid, and chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell.
Anaphase
Sister chromatids separate, moving to opposite ends of the cell and becoming individual chromosomes.
Telophase
Chromosomes decondense and nuclear membrane reforms around chromosomes, spindle fibers break down as cytokinesis begins.
Cytokinesis
End result is 2 identical cells.
