TermDefinition
InterphaseThe cell grows and replicates its DNA and centrioles.
ProphaseThe chromatin condenses into chromosomes. The centrioles separate, and a spindle begins to form. The nuclear envelope breaks down.
MetaphaseThe chromosomes line up across the center of the cell. Each chromosome is connected to a spindle fiber at its centromere.
AnaphaseThe sister chromatids separate into individual chromosomes and are moved apart.
TelophaseThe chromosomes gather at opposite ends of the cell and lose their distinct shapes. Two new nuclear envelopes will form.
CytokinesisThe cytoplasm pinches in half. Each daughter cell has an identical set of duplicate chromosomes.
