Prophase
In this phase, chromatin condenses into visible chromosomes.
What is Prophase?
Chromosome line up along the equatorial plane of the cell during this phase.
What is Metaphase?
Sister chromatids are separated and pulled to opposite poles of the cell during this phase.
What is anaphase?
In this phase, the nuclear envelope reforms around the separated chromatids.
What is Telophase?
The phase of mitosis that directly follows telophase.
What is Interphase?
The nuclear envelope begins to break down during this sub-phase of prophase.
What is Prometaphase?
The spindle fibers attach to this part of the chromosome during metaphase.
What are Kinetochores?
The microtubules shorten, causing the sister chromatids to move toward opposite poles during the sub-phase of anaphase.
What is Anaphase B?
This structure, which will eventually become the cell wall in plant cells, forms during telophase.
What is a Cell Plate?
This term refers to the division of the cytoplasm following mitosis.
