Mitosis Part 2

Cell Cycle- the ordered
sequence of events in
the life of a eukaryotic

cell.

It includes interphase,

mitosis, and
cytokinesis.

Mitosis - stage of the cell

cycle when the nucleus

divides. It includes

prophase, metaphase,

anaphase and telophase.

Chromosome

- contains

DNA

Prophase - 1st stage of

mitosis where the nuclear

membrane breaks down and

chromatids condense into

chromosomes.

Metaphase - 2nd stage of

mitosis where the

chromosomes line up in the

middle of the cell.

Anaphase - 3rd stage of

mitosis where the spindle

fibers pull the

chromosomes APART.

Telophase - 4th stage of
mitosis where the cell
begins to separate into

TWO cells.

Cytokinesis- “Cyto”=cell

“kinesis”=apart

The daughter cells

separate

Interphase

stage of mitosis where the
cell begins to separate into

two cells.

stage of mitosis where the
nuclear membrane breaks

down and chromatids

condense into chromosomes.

Prophase

stage of mitosis where the

chromosomes line up on the

equator of the cell.

stage of the cell cycle

when the nucleus divides.

It includes prophase,

metaphase, anaphase and

telophase.

stage of mitosis where the

spindle fibers pull the
chromosomes APART.

The daughter cells

separate
