Question

mengs mother served him fried eggs for breakfast. after seeing the eggs, he noticed that they closely resembled a stage in cell division thats common to both meiosis and mitosis. which stage will occur after the stage that resembles the fried eggs?
prophase
anaphase
metaphase
cytokinesis

Explanation:

1. First, identify the cell division stage the fried eggs resemble: the yolks represent condensed chromosomes aligned at the cell's equator, which is metaphase (a stage common to both mitosis and meiosis).
2. Next, recall the order of cell division stages: prophase → metaphase → anaphase → telophase → cytokinesis. The stage immediately following metaphase is anaphase.

Answer:

anaphase
