Interphase

1
Interphase

• Growth
• Replication of DNA
• Final preparation for mitosis

2
Mitosis
3
Prophase

• Chromatin condenses
• Centrioles separate (animal cells only)
• Spindle forms
• Nuclear membrane breaks down

4
Metaphase

• Chromosomes line up in middle of cell
• Chromosome is attached to spindle at its
  centromere

5
Anaphase

• Sister chromatids separate

6
Telophase

• Two new nuclear membranes form
• Chromosomes disperse
• Spindle breaks apart
• Each daughter cell has an identical set of
  chromosomes

7
Cytokinsesis

• Division of cytoplasm
• Animals- cytoplasm is pinched
• Plants- cell plate forms in between the two nuclei
