Q

what occurs in prophase?

A

chromatin fibres condense forming chromatids

Q

what occurs at Metaphase

A

chromatids line up at equator

17
Q

what occurs un anaphase?

A

centromere splits chromosomes
chromatides become chromosomes

18
Q

what occurs in telophase?

A

nuclear membrane reforms
nucleolus reappears
spindles disappear
chromosomes become invisiable
