Mitosis Prophase Metaphase Anaphase Telophase

 Means in Ancient Greek “before stage”  Chromatin condenses into a structure called chromosome which is called Chromatin condensation  Sister chromatids are attached to each other at the centromere  The centrosomes move away from each other, apparently propelled by the lengthening microtubules between themcentrosomes  The nuclear envelope breaks down and microtubules of the spindle fiber can now invade the nuclear area and interact with the chromosomes, which have become more densespindle fiber  Each of the two chromatids of a chromosome now has a kinetochorekinetochore  “Kinetochore Microtubules” jerk the chromosomes back and forth  Nonkinetochore microtubules interact with those from the opposite pole of the spindle SWEET PICS

 In Greek it means “between stage”  The longest stage of mitosis, lasting about 20 minutes.  The centrosomes are now at the opposite ends of the cell  The chromosomes are located in the middle of the cell on the metaphase plate where they are equidistant from the chromosomes on each end of the cellmetaphase plate SWEET PICS

 In Greek means “up stage”  The shortest of the stages, lasting only a few minutes  The sister chromatids of each pair suddenly part, making each chromatid a chromosome  As kinetochore microtubules shorten the chromosomes are pulled to opposite ends of the cell  The cell elongates as the nonkinetochore microtubules lengthen  As anaphase ends the two ends of the cell have equivalent and complete collections of chromosomes SWEET PICS

 Two daughter nuclei begin to form in the cell  The nuclear envelopes arise from the fragments of the parent cell’s nuclear envelope and other portions of the endomembrane system endomembrane  The chromosomes become less condensed  Mitosis is complete SWEET PICS

 Centrosomes- small region of cytoplasm adjacent to the nucleus that contains the contrioles and serves to organize microtubules  Endomembrane system – composed of the different membranes that are suspended in the cytoplasm within a eukaryotic cell  Kinetochores – protein structure on chromosomes where the spindle fibers attach during division to pull the chromosomes apart  Metaphase plate – plane of the equator of the spindle into the which chromosomes are positioned during metaphase  Spindle fibers – microtubules that move chromosomes during cell division
