Match the steps of mitosis with the description
Microtubules pull the lined-up chromosomes apart
The spindle lines up the chromosomes down the center of the cell
Two new nuclei form, chromosomes unravel and spread out
The cell begins to prepare for replication
The cytoplasm divides, forming 2 identical daughter cells
Answers:
telophase metaphase prophase anaphase cytokinesis
telophase - Two new nuclei form, chromosomes unravel and spread out
metaphase - The spindle lines up the chromosomes down the center of the cell
prophase - The cell begins to prepare for replication
anaphase - Microtubules pull the lined-up chromosomes apart
cytokinesis - The cytoplasm divides, forming 2 identical daughter cells
During cell division, how do chromosomes move to opposite poles of the cell? (1 point)
They move randomly throughout the cell. They are pushed by the cell membrane. They replicate to create new chromosomes. They are pulled by spindle fibers.
They are carried by ribosomes.
