Question

___ telophase __ Daughter nuclei reform __ metaphase __ Chromosomes align on an imaginary line equidistant from each pole __ mitosis Nuclear division that distributes chromosomes equally to daughter cells __ prophase __ Chromatin fibers become more condensed to form discrete chromosomes __ Nucleus is well defined and bounded by the nuclear envelope __ Includes G_1, G_2, and S phases __ Centromeres separate and the sister chromatids are now individual chromosomes. __ Chromosomes move towards opposite poles of the cell __ First period of cell growth after mitosis is completed __ Cell continues to grow but is now completing preparations for mitosis __ Chromosomes become less distinct and chromatin forms as each chromosome becomes less tightly coiled - Mitotic spindle begins to form by extending from the two centrosomes - Phase during which DNA is synthesized - Nuclear envelope fragments and spindle fibers attach to kinetochores of chromatids __ Division of the cytoplasm
