6 Cards in this Set

INTERPHASE |
The cell grows and replicates its DNA and centrioles. |
|
PROPHASE |
The chromatin condenses into chromosomes. The centrioles separate, and a spindle begins to form. The nuclear envelope breaks down. |
|
METAPHASE |
The chromosomes line up across the center of the cell. Each chromosome is connected to spindle fibers at its centromere. |
|
ANAPHASE |
The sister chromatids separate into individual chromosomes and are moved apart. |
|
TELOPHASE |
The chromosomes gather at opposite ends of the cell and lose their distinct shapes. Two new nuclear envelopes will form. |
|
CYTOKINESIS |
The cytoplasm pinches in half. Each daughter cell has an identical set of duplicate chromosomes. |
