Interphase

Growth and organelle replication

Prophase

chromosomes condense, nucleus begins to disappear, spindle fibers begin

Metaphase

chromosomes line up in the middle attached to the spindle fibers

Anaphase

spindle fibers pull the chromatids apart to either side of the cell

Telophase

Chromosomes begin to unwind, spindle fiber begin to disappear, nuclear membrane begin to form,

Cytokinesis

cell membrane forms two new identical cells

Cell cycle

Forms two identical cells for growth, repair

Chromosome

two sister chromatids attached in the middle by a centromere

centrioles

form the spindle fibers

chromatin

transparent strands of DNA
