CELL CYCLE
Mitosis is the division of the nucleus into
two
Cytokinesis is the division of
the cell into two
(d) Anaphase
(a) Interphase (b) Late prophase
(e) Telophase
(c) Metaphase
(f) interphase
STAGES OF MITOSIS (PMAT) Prophase
Chromatin shortens and thickens to become visible chromosomes
Spindle begins to form Nuclear envelope breaks down
Metaphase – MIDDLE Chromosomes line up on the cell
metaphase plate Anaphase Telophase
STAGES OF MITOSIS (PMAT) Prophase Metaphase Anaphase - APART
Chromosomes split and the chromatids crawl along the microtubules of the mitotic spindle
Telophase Chromosomes become less distinct Nucleolus and nuclear envelope
reappear
