Human cell division is commonly referred to as the Mitotic (M) phase, since most body cells only undergo mitosis. The M phase of the cell cycle includes mitosis and cytokinesis. Mitosis is the division of the cell's nucleus into two genetically identical daughter nuclei and consists of four separate phases. Place the four phases of mitosis in the correct order of occurrence from left to right.

Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase

Now that you have learned the correct order for the phases of mitosis, this activity will test your understanding of events that occur during each phase. Sort the following events into the phase of mitosis that they occur.

Prophase- -Nuclear envelope breaks up -DNA condenses into chromosomes -centrosomes move to opposite sides of the cell -mitotic spindle fibers form and attach to centromeres Metaphase- -Chromosomes align in the center of the cell Anaphase- -Sister chromatids separate into chromosomes -Chromosomes move along the spindle fibers Telophase- -chromosomes relax and nuclear envelopes form -chromosomes reach the opposite ends of cell -completion of cytokinesis
