This page should act as help for your mitosis studies

Here is what your slide looks like.

The following are guides to help you find specific stages:

PROPHASE

Chromosomes are visible now.

Nuclear membrane disappears.

Spindle fibers become visible.

METAPHASE

Spindle fibers attach to centromeres and move them toward the center.

ANAPHASE

Spindle fibers pull sister chromatids a part towards opposite poles.

TELOPHASE

Chromosomes start to condense again. A cell plate begins to form.
