Study Notes
Mitosis - Anaphase
- Chromosomes are separated and move to opposite poles.
Mitosis - Telophase
- Nuclear membrane starts to reform
- Chromosomes gather at opposite ends
Mitosis - Cytokinesis
- Cytoplasm is pinched in half to create 2 identical daughter cells
Definitions
- Cytokinesis = division of cytoplasm
- Mitosis = division of the nucleus
