Mitosis Cell Reproduction
MitosisThe nucleus divides to form two identical nuclei.
Cells divide in FIVE stages.
5 Phases of MitosisInterphase
Prophase
Metaphase
Anaphase
Telophase
INTERPHASE
Cell’s chromosomes duplicated
The nucleolus is clearly visible
! PROPHASE
Chromatid pairs are visible
Spindle Fiber begins to form
Nuclear membrane breaking down.
MetaphaseChromatid pairs line up in
center of the cell.Spindle fiber connects
chromosomes to centrioles
ANAPHASEChromosomes separate.
Spindle fiber pulls chormosomes towards the
centrioles.
TELOPHASECytoplasm begins to
separate.New nucleus forms.
Mitosis Ends
Both new identical cells enter interphase.
