The Cell Cycle
Start G S G Mitosis
Mitosis Prophase chromosomes condense spindle starts to form nuclear envelope disappears
Mitosis Metaphase chromosomes line up along the center Spindle fibers connect to chromosomes
Mitosis Anaphase Sister chromatids separate and move to opposite ends of the cell
Mitosis Telophase Condensed chromosomes begin to spread out into chromatin. Nuclear envelope re-forms
Cytokinesis division of the cytoplasm splits the parent cell into identical 2 daughter cells
Cytokinesis Animal Cells: membrane pinches inward Plant Cells: cell plate develops from inside
