6. MITOSIS cHALLENGE What key events happen during each stage of mitosis?
Obtain a note sheet, mitosis flashcards, microscope and onion root tip slides
Use the flashcards to complete your note sheet for the FIRST stage of the cell cycle (Interphase).
Using your microscope, identify a cell that is undergoing this stage. Verify with Mrs. Miller
Move onto the next stage and repeat.

7. Interphase Cell grows and carries out cellular functions
DNA and centrioles replicate
Preparation for division

8. Mitosis
A. Prophase
Chromatin condenses into chromosomes; sister chromatids attached at the centromere
Nuclear membrane disintegrates
Nucleolus disappears
Centrioles move to poles of cell and spindle begins to form

9. Mitosis
B. Metaphase:
Chromosomes attach to spindle apparatus and line up at equator of cell

10. Mitosis
C. Anaphase:
Microtubules shorten, pulling sister chromatids apart.
Individual chromosomes move to poles of the cell

11. Mitosis
D. Telophase:
Chromosomes reach poles of cell and “relaxes” into chromatin
Nuclear envelop reforms, nucleolus becomes visible
Cell membrane begins to pinch

12. Cytokinesis Splits one cell into two
Animal Cell – membrane pinches inward
Plant Cell – Cell plate forms

14. Result Each daughter cell has identical set of chromosomes 
View it in action
