d. prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase

what is the role of the spindle fibers during mitosis: a. they duplicate the DNA b. they make the chromosome visible c. they break down the nuclear membrane d. the help separate the chromosomes

d. they help separate the chromosomes

the two main stages of cell division are called: a. mitosis and cytokinesis b. mitosis and interphase c. synthesis and cytokinesis d. the M phase and the S phase

A. Mitosis and cytikinesis

G1 phase is

Cell growth

S phase is
