Cytokinesis separates the nuclei into two daughter cells which are identical to the original cell.

There are two nuclei in the cell, now it’s about to divide.Ĭytokinesis This is the final stage in mitosis. Telophase The spindle fibres begin to disappear, and a nuclear membrane forms around the chromosomes. Once they separate, each chromatid is a chromosome. Metaphase The spindle fibres tug the X shaped chromosomes into a line across the middle of the cell.Īnaphase The spindle fibres begin to contract and shorten which pulls the centromere apart to let the sister chromatids move to the opposite sides of the cell. with a whole group, small groups or individual configurations. This resource may be used: -with students from grades 5-6. This flip book will fit in an interactive science notebook.

The spindle fibres have fully formed, and they attach themselves to the centromeres. This flip book will help students identify the characteristics of plant and animal cells.

Late Prophase The nucleus has completely disappeared. E N D - Presentation TranscriptĮarly Prophase The nuclear membrane and the nucleolus start to disappear.
