Mitosis
Interphase
-chromosomes are elongated, thin thread called chromatin
Prophase (early)
-chromosomes condense, shorter, thicker and more tightly coiled
Prophase (late)
-chromosomes replicate and consists of two sister chromatids
-nucleolus and nuclear membrane break down
Metaphase
-chromosomes line up at the equatorial plane
Anaphase
-chromosomes separate and pull to opposite pole
Telophase
-chromosomes reach the opposite poles
-nuclear membrane forms in each opposite poles
Cytokinesis
-plasma membrane form cleavage furrow
-the cell divides to form two daughter cells
