2. Interphase o Grow o DNA replicates (exact copy) o Prepares to divide o 90% of life http://emt.bu.edu/em6 10/em610_ol_spring_200 8/yanti/interphase_text. JPG http://biology.uoregon.ed u/reference/ort_mitosis/im ages/I-image1-label.jpg

3. Mitosis Stage 1: Prophase o Nuclear membrane and nucleolus disappear o Spindle fibers appear (ropes) o See duplicated chromosomes http://www.wi.mit.edu/news/ paradigm/spring_2008/img/sp litsville_prophase.jpg http://www.montewest on.com/Biology/Bio/la bel41.jpg

4. Mitosis Stage 2: Metaphase o Duplicated chromosomes move to middle o Sister chromatids on either side http://washington.uwc.ed u/about/wayne.schaefer/ MITOSIS/whitefish_metaph ase1.JPG http://joshattualatinhig h4a.edublogs.org/files/ 2011/11/metaphase_te xt-sh14gp.jpg

5. Mitosis Stage 3: Anaphase o Sister chromatids separate and move to opposite ends http://www2.victoriacollege.edu/d ept/bio/Mitosis/Animal/EnhanAna1 crop.jpg http://staff.jccc.net/pdecell/ celldivision/images/anaphas e.gif

6. Mitosis Stage 4: Telophase o Nuclear membrane and nucleolus reappear o Chromosomes loosen up and become chromatin http://emily3bbartlett.edublogs.org/files/20 11/11/telophase_cyt okinesis_text- 2blevd8.jpg http://micro.magnet. fsu.edu/cells/fluoresc encemitosis/images/t elophase1large.jpg
