- Mitosis
- Prophase
- Chromosomes become visbile
- Increasingly shorten and thicken by process supercoiling
- Prophase ends when two chromatids are held together at the centromere
- Metaphase
- The centrioles move to opposites ends of the cell
- Microtubles of the cytoplasm start to form into a spindle, emitting out from the centrioles
- Microtubles attach to the centromeres of each pair of chromatids, arranging at the equator of the spindle
- Anaphase
- The centromeres divide, and spindle fibres shorten, and the chromatids are pulled by their centromeres to opposite poles
- Now separated, the chromatids are referred to as chromosomes
- Telophase
- A nuclear membrane re-forms around both groups of chromosomes at opposite ends of the cell
- The chromosomes 'decondense' by uncoiling, becoming chromatids again.
- The nucleolus re-forms in each nucleus
- Interphase
- The chromosomes 'decondense' by uncoiling, becoming chromatids again.
- A nuclear membrane re-forms around both groups of chromosomes at opposite ends of the cell
- Telophase
- Now separated, the chromatids are referred to as chromosomes
- The centromeres divide, and spindle fibres shorten, and the chromatids are pulled by their centromeres to opposite poles
- Anaphase
- Microtubles attach to the centromeres of each pair of chromatids, arranging at the equator of the spindle
- Microtubles of the cytoplasm start to form into a spindle, emitting out from the centrioles
- The centrioles move to opposites ends of the cell
- At this time the nucleolus gradually disappears and the nuclear membrane breaks down
- Metaphase
- Prophase ends when two chromatids are held together at the centromere
- Increasingly shorten and thicken by process supercoiling
