When a cell undergoing mitosis is viewed under the microscope, the chromosomes are being pulled to opposite sides of the cell. What phase is it in?
|
Prophase
|
|
Metaphase
|
|
Anaphase
|
|
Telophase
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -During anaphase (b), the sister chromatids are pulled apart and move toward opposite poles of the cell.
Detailed explanation-2: -Telophase is the fifth and final phase of mitosis, the process that separates the duplicated genetic material carried in the nucleus of a parent cell into two identical daughter cells. Telophase begins once the replicated, paired chromosomes have been separated and pulled to opposite sides, or poles, of the cell.
Detailed explanation-3: -Chromosomes become visible during prophase. Chromatin is in its least condensed stage during the interphase stage. It begins its condensation during the prophase stage and is visible until the end of cell division.
