Match each of the following cellular processes to the stage of mitosis in which it occurs. (Select all correct processes for each mitotic stage. Each cellular process is used only once.)
Stage Cellular processes
prophase a. Microtubules search for and attach to
kinetochores at the centromere of each
chromosome.
prometaphase b. Microtubules from both sides of the mitotic
spindle tether each chromosome and move
them to the center of the cell.
metaphase c. Chromosomes condense to thickened
structures that are visible under the microscope.
anaphase d. The centromere divides and the sister
chromatids separate.
telophase e. The nuclear envelope reforms around the
segregated chromosomes.
f. Two new chromosomes form from each
original chromosome.
g. The nuclear envelope disappears.
h. Microtubules pull chromosomes toward
opposite poles.
i. The mitotic spindle assembles from tubulin
dimers as the centrosomes migrate to opposite
poles.
j. Chromosomes arrive at opposite poles of the
cell.
k. Chromosomes decondense.
l. The mitotic spindle disappears.
What will be an ideal response?
Choice Stage
c, i prophase
a, g prometaphase
b metaphase
d, f, h anaphase
e, j, k, l telophase
