3. Complete the mind map below by typing or writing in the steps of mitosis. Please include interphase. Please explain what takes place in each step. Option 2 List steps here Describe steps here ↓ ↓ ↓ ↓
Interphase stages:(G0, G1, S and G2) G0: the resting of the cell G1: The organelles form and makes proteins S: during the S stage, a cell grows and copies its DNA G2: during the G2 stage another period of growth and final preparation for mitosis.
Mitotic phase: Mitosis (a good way to remember the 4 phases of mitosis is PMAT) 1. Prophase: In the nucleus, chromosomes condense and become visible. In the cytoplasm, the spindle fibers form. 2. Metaphase: The copied chromosomes align in the middle of the cell. 3. Anaphase: The chromosomes separate into two genetically identical groups and move to opposite ends of the spindle. 4. Telophase: Nuclear membranes form around each of the two sets of chromosomes, the chromosomes begin to spread out the spindle begins to breakdown. Last is Cytokinesis: Division of a cell's cytoplasm after telophase.
