What are the 5 phases of Mitosis
Prophase
Prometaphase
Metaphase
Anaphase
Telophase
Mitosis
What happens during prophase
chromosomes condense and become visible

the mitotic spindle forms
Mitosis
What happens during Prometaphase
The nuclear envelope breaks down

The nucleolus disappears

Kinetochore microtubules from the mitotic spindle attaches to one of the sister chromatids of each chromosome
Mitosis
What happens during Metaphase
The formation of the mitotic spindle is completed

each chromosome is pulled in opposite directions, causing them to line up in the middle of the cell at a place called the metaphase plate
Mitosis
What happens during Anaphase
the centomeres split and the sister chromatids are pulled towards opposite ends of the cell
Mitosis
What happens during Telophase
A new nuclear envelope begins to form

The mitotic spindle disintegrates

the chromosomes begin to decondense
What are five phases of meiosis 1
Early prophase 1
Late prophase 1
Metaphase 1
Anaphase 1
Telophase 1
Meiosis 1
What happens during early prophase 1
The homolog pairs come together in a process called synapsis and form a tetrad
Meiosis 1
What happens during late prophase 1
Crossing over between homologous non-sister chromatids occurs where chiasmata are formed
Meiosis 1
What happens during Metaphase 1
The tetrads line up at the mertaphase plate
Meiosis 1
What happens during Anaphase 1
The paired homologs separate and begin to migrate to opposite ends of the cell
Meiosis 1
What happens during telophase 1
The homologs finish migrating to the poles of the cell, the cell divides in the process of cytokinesis
What are the four steps of Meiosis 2
Prophase 2
Metaphase 2
Anaphase 2
Telophase 2
Meiosis 2
What happens during Prophase 2
The spindle apparatus forms and one spindle fiber attaches to each sister chromatid
Meiosis 2
What happens during metaphase 2
Replicated chromosomes line up at the metaphase plate
Meiosis 2
What happens during anapahse 2
Sister chromatids separate. The resulting chromosomes begin moving to opposite sides of the cell
Meiosis 2
What happens during telophase 2
Chromosome arrive at opposite sides of the cell. A nuclear envelope forms around each haploid set of chromosomes, and each cell undergoes cytokinesis
