Prophase
Chromatin in the nucleus condenses, visible under a microscope
Metaphase
The centrosomes are now at opposites poles of the cell
Anaphase
Begins when the cohesin proteins are cleaved.
Telophase
Two daughter nuclei form in the cell
Prophase
The nucleoli disappear
Metaphase
Chromosomes have all arrived at the metaphase plate
Anaphase
Two new daughter chromosomes begin moving toward opposite ends of the cell as their kinetochore microtubules shorten
Telophase
Nuclei envelopes arise from the fragments of the parent cell's nuclear envelope and other portions of the endomembrane system
Prophase
The centrosomes move to opposite poles of the cell
Metaphase
Kinetochores of the sister chromatids are attached to kinetochore microtubules coming from opposite poles
Anaphase
The cell elongates as the nonkinetochore microtubules lengthen
Telophase
Nucleoli reappear
Prophase
Two identical sister chromatids joined at their centromeres and, often, all along their arms by cohesins
Anaphase
the two ends of the cell have identical-and complete-collections of chromosomes
Telophase
The chromosomes become less condensed
Telophase
Any remaining microtubules are depolymerized
Prophase
Mitotic spindle begins to form; it is composed of the centrosomes and the microtubules that extend from them
Prophase
Asters are formed - radial arrays of shorter microtubules that extend from the centromeres
Prophase
Centrosomes move away from each other, propelled partly by the lengthening microtubules
Genome
The complete set of genetic information in an organism
Chromosomes
Are threadlike structures of nucleic acids and protein found in the nucleus of most living cells, carrying genetic information in the form of genes
Centromere
Appears as a constricted region of a chromosome and plays a key role in helping the cell divide up its DNA during division
Chromatid
Is one of the two identical halves of a chromosome that has been replicated in preparation for cell division
Chromatin
a substance within a chromosome consisting of DNA and protein
Histone
A protein that provides structural support for a chromosome
Cell reproduction, Renewal and repair of damaged cells, Distribution of Genetic Material
Key roles of cell division
