Interphase |
- DNA replicates - DNA is invisible - cell grows & carries out normal functions - cell spends most time in this phase |
|
|
|
Prophase |
- chromosomes coil up - Nuclear envelope disappears - spindle fibres form - DNA becomes visible |
|
|
|
Metaphase |
- chromosomes lineup in the middle (@ the equator) - Spindle fibres connect to chromosomes by their centromeres |
Middle |
|
|
Anaphase |
- chromosome copies divide - Spindle fibres contract to pull chromosomes to opposite poles |
Apart |

|
Telophase |
- Chromosomes uncoil - Nuclear envelopes form - 2 new nuclei form - spindle fibres disappear |
Two |
