Question

multiple choice 1 point
what phase of mitosis is pictured?
image of a cell in a mitotic phase
options:
prophase
metaphase
anaphase
telophase

Explanation:

In this stage of mitosis, sister chromatids have separated and are being pulled toward opposite poles of the cell by spindle fibers, which is the defining characteristic of anaphase. Prophase involves chromosome condensation and spindle formation, metaphase has chromosomes aligned at the cell's equator, and telophase involves the start of nuclear reformation around separated chromosomes.

Answer:

anaphase
