Prophase
a. Chromatin shortens and thickens (rods are visible). b. Microtubules connect centrosomes (polar fibers). c. Microtubules connect to chromosomes (kinetochore fibers). d. Chromosomes begin to move towards the cell's equator. e. Nuclear membrane begins to dissolve.

30
Chromosomes begin to move towards the cell's equator.
prophase
31
Nuclear membrane begins to dissolve.
prophase
32
Metaphase
a. Chromosomes are aligned along the equator. b. Kinetochore fibers attach to centromeres on chromosomes. c. Phase ends when centromeres split and chromatids begin to form single chromosomes.
33

Metaphase
34
Kinetochore fibers attach to centromeres on chromosomes.
Metaphase
35
Phase ends when centromeres split and chromatids begin to form single chromosomes.
Metaphase
36
Anaphase
The main event is the separation of chromosomes to opposite poles.
37
The main event is the separation of chromosomes to opposite poles.
Anaphase
38
Telophase
Chromosomes are at opposite poles. b. Nuclear membrane reforms. c. Other structures; centrosomes, fibers disappear. d. In animal cells, a cleavage furrow begins during late anaphase - region where the cell will split. e. In plants, a cell plate forms since the cell wall is rigid. f. Cytokinesis occurs.
