Phases Of Mitosis

Front 1

List the 5 phases of mitosis

Back 1

Prophase
Prometaphase
Metaphase
Anaphase
Telophase

Front 2

chromosomes have already replicated to produce 12 chromatids joined as six pairs of sister chromatids. Nuclear membrane begins to dissociate, chromatids condense into more compact structures, mitotic spindle begins to form

Back 2

Prophase

Front 3

centrosomes move to opposite ends of the cell; spindle fibers interact with the sister chromatids; mitotic spindle is completely formed

Back 3

Prometaphase

Front 4

pair of sister chromatids complete alignment along the metaphase plate; pair of sister chromatids have become organized in a line along the plate

Back 4

Metaphase

Front 5

connection that holds sister chromatids together is broken; chromosomes move toward poles to which they are attached; poles themselves move farther apart

Back 5

Anaphase

Front 6

chromosomes reach respective poles and decondense; nuclear membrane reforms to produce two separate nuclei

Back 6

telophase

Front 7

What do mitosis and cytokinesis ultimately produce?

Back 7

2 daughter cells having the same number of chromosomes as the mother cell; these two daughter cells are genetically identical to each other and to the mother cell from which they were divided.
