interphase prophase metaphase anaphase telophase cytokinesis spindle fiber cell plate centromere mitosis

Explanation:

1. Anaphase is when sister - chromatids separate and move towards the poles.
2. Prophase is when the nucleolus begins to fade as the cell prepares for division.
3. Telophase is when a new nuclear membrane forms around the chromosomes.
4. Cytokinesis is when the cytoplasm of the cell is divided.
5. Metaphase is when chromosomes line up at the equator of the cell.
6. Prophase is when the nuclear membrane begins to break down and fade from view.
7. Cytokinesis in animal cells shows the formation of a cleavage furrow.
8. Anaphase is when chromosomes move towards the poles.
9. Metaphase is when chromosomes line up at the equator.
10. Prophase is when the spindle is formed.
11. Interphase is when chromosomes are not visible as they are in a less - condensed form.
12. Cytokinesis marks the completion of cell division.
13. In plant cells, the cell plate is completed during cytokinesis.
14. Interphase is when chromosomes are replicated.
15. Telophase is the reverse of prophase.
16. Interphase is an organization phase where the cell grows and replicates DNA.
17. Interphase is an organization phase.
