Q

Prophase

A
  • condensation of chromatins to chromosomes
  • sister chromatids bound together by cohesions
  • nucleoli disappears - outside nucleolus, mitotic spindles begin to form

Q

interpolar microtubules

A
  • hold two halves of spindle together
  • kinesin proteins help flux towards spindle poles

Q

Prometaphase

A
  • fragmentation of nuclear envelope (presented by microtubules)
  • chromosomes became more condensed
  • microtubules connect to kinetochores

Q

metaphase

A
  • chromosomes align at metaphase plate
  • kinetochore of sister chromatids attach to microtubules from opposite sides

Q

anaphase (shortest)

A
  • cohesion proteins are cleaved –> allows separation of sister chromatids with separate
  • daughter chromosomes move towards opposite poles
  • cell elongates as non-kinetochore microtubules length

Q

telophase

A
  • two sets of daughter chromosomes arrive at poles of the spindle
  • chromosomes start to decondense
  • nuclear envelope reassembles
  • nucleoli reappear
  • formation of contractile ring

Q

cytokinesis in plant cells

A

no cleavage furrow
- during telophase, vesicles derived from Golgi move along microtubules to form a cell wall
- cell plate forms new cell wall
