20nuclear membrane breaks down5 sets
21the first subphase of mitosis, in which the chromatin is condensing and the mitotic spindle begins to form, but the nucleolus and nucleus are still intact.4 sets

33chromatin to chromosome, spindle fibers start to form, centrioles move, and cell membrane breaks apart3 sets
34chromosomes thicken3 sets
35the first and longest phase of mitosis3 sets
36chromosomes condense, nuclear envelope disappears, microtubules form spindle fibers which attach to centromeres of chromosomes3 sets
371st phase of cell division. the chromosomes are seen to consist or 2 chromatids joined by a centromere. the centrioles move apart towards opposite poles. spindle fibers are produced and extend from each centrosome. the nucleur membrane starts to disappear. the nucleolus is no longer visible3 sets
