Preliminary stage includes all the initial steps that occur in preparation for the next stage or metaphase.
Prophase
89
# Cell Division: Phases of Mitosis
2 - The 46 chromosomes become condensed, rodlike and shortened.
Prophase
90
# Cell Division: Phases of Mitosis
chromosomes become doubled and 46 pairs of chromatids, (92), each one of pair identical to its mate, each gene is duplicated.
Duplication
| part of prophase
91
# Cell Division: Phases of Mitosis
3 - Paired chromatids separate except at one point near the center — the centromere.
Prophase
92
# Cell Division: Phases of Mitosis
4 - The centromere divides into 2 centrosomes, one of which migrates to each pole (or end) of the cell body; (centrosomes contain 2 centrioles);
Prophase
93

Aster formation
| (aster = star)
95
# Cell Division: Phases of Mitosis
* The nuclear membrane disappears.

Prophase
96
# Cell Division
* Equatorial grouping; the chromatids line up at the equator of the spindle
* The paired chromatids become arranged at the equator of the spindle, one pair attached to a fiber of the spindle.
Metaphase
97
# Cell Division
* Or separation
* The paired chromatids separate from each other.
* One chromatid of each pair migrates along its fiber to a centrosome at each pole.
* The 46 chromatids become chromosomes or fine filaments grouped at the centrosome.
Anaphase
98
# Cell Division
* **Completion of cell division**
* The 46 chromosomes, threadlike filaments, form a new nucleus close to the centrosome.
* The spindle and aster disappear.
* A nuclear membrane forms around the 46 chromosomes at each end of the dividing cell.
* **The nucleolus reforms**
* The cytoplasm divides, the cell membrane now becomes constricted at the equator, and pinches off forming two separate daughter cells with nuclei.
* Each daughter cell is a duplication of the parent cell and its genes

99

Are fine filaments, 46 in each nucleus in human somatic cells, contain DNA molecules all having many genes per chromosome, participate in cell division, becoming duplicated, form chromosomes of daughter cells.
