Telophase
___ ___ begins to form during prophase
Mitotic spindle
The chromosomes are considered fully __ making them compacted.
condensed
What is present in the cytoplasm?
Chromosomes
What would happen if we did not have anaphase in mitosis?
What is the product of telophase and cytokinesis?
Two daughter cells
During prophase the chromosome __
Condense
What enters the nuclear area?
Microtubules
What is the metaphase plate used for?
It allows the chromosomes a place to be lined up on before they are pulled apart.
it ensures that each daughter cell will have an identical set of chromosomes.
During cell division, the contractile ring generates the constricting force to separate one cell into two cells.
Centrosomes move to __ sides of the nucleus
opposite
the chromosomes inside form protein structures called __
Kinetochore
Why is metaphase essential in mitosis?
It ensures that the cell is ready to divide.
What causes the sister chromatids to move to opposite ends of the cell?
The microtubules shortening
