1
New cards

Interphase

GI - cell grows + produces proteins needed to replicate organelles

S - DNA is replicated

G2 - cell continues to grow.

2
New cards

Prophase

The strands of DNA coil up and condense

centrioles move to the opposite sides and form spindle fibres

nucleolus disappears and the nuclear envelope breaks down.

3
New cards

Metaphase

Chromosomes line up at the cell equator

the centromeres attach to the spindle fibres.

4
New cards

Anaphase

Centromeres divide

sister chromatids separate (the spindle contracts + shorten)

sister chromatids pulled to opposite poles.

5
New cards

Telophase

Chromosomes unravel

new nuclear envelope forms

nucleoli appear.

6
New cards

Cytokinesis

Cytoplasm divides.
