Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
The stage where chromosomes condense and the nucleur membrane begins to disappear?
A
Prophase
B
metaphase
C
anaphase
D
Telephase
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -During prophase, the chromosomes condense, the nucleolus disappears, and the nuclear envelope breaks down.

Detailed explanation-2: -During metaphase, the nuclear membrane disappears and the chromosomes become aligned half way between the centrioles.

Detailed explanation-3: -Prophase is the first phase of mitosis, the process that separates the duplicated genetic material carried in the nucleus of a parent cell into two identical daughter cells. During prophase, the complex of DNA and proteins contained in the nucleus, known as chromatin, condenses.

Detailed explanation-4: -At the beginning of mitosis, the chromosomes condense, the nucleolus disappears, and the nuclear envelope breaks down, resulting in the release of most of the contents of the nucleus into the cytoplasm. In most cells, the disassembly of the nuclear envelope marks the end of the prophase of mitosis.

Detailed explanation-5: -Metaphase Metaphase is a stage during the process of cell division (mitosis or meiosis). Normally, individual chromosomes are spread out in the cell nucleus. During metaphase, the nucleus dissolves and the cell’s chromosomes condense and move together, aligning in the center of the dividing cell.
