1. M-Phase Prophase – Metaphase – Anaphase – Telophase Prophase
chromatin begins to tightly coil (condenses)
nuclear envelope begins to disappear
nucleoli disappear
each chromosome is now a complex of sister chromatids
mitotic spindle begins to form
centrosomes move away fro each other
Prometaphase
nuclear envelope fragments
microtubules move through the nuclear area through the center of the cell
each sister chromatid complex is now connected to a microtubules by the kinetochore region of the centromere

2. M-Phase Metaphase longest phase of Mitosis
centrosomes are now at opposite sides of the cell
chromosomes are located at the metaphase plate (center)
kinetochores of the sister chromatids are now attached to tubules of opposite centrosomes
microtubule complex is now called the spindle

3. M-Phase Anaphase shortest phase of Mitosis
sister chromatids are pulled apart as the spindle fibers shorten
the separated chromosomes migrate toward the opposite poles
at the end of anaphase the polar regions of the cell have equivalent amounts and types of chromosomes

4. M-Phase Telophase the 2 daughter cell nuclei begin to form
nuclear envelopes begin to form from the parent fragments
chromosomes become less condensed
mitosis is complete with the completion of the 2 nuclei regions

5. M-Phase
Cytokinesis
the cell divides at the cleavage furrow shortly after Mitosis
Pinching in of the plasma membrane
Cell plate forms in plants
Becomes the cell wall
