Animal Cell Mitosis
Label the mitosis diagram using the terms below.
Mitosis is the duplication and division of a eukaryotic cell's
nucleus and nuclear material (DNA). The stages of mitosis
are: [interphase (the cell when not undergoing mitosis, but
the DNA is replicated)], prophase, metaphase, anaphase,
and telophase.
Terms to Use:
Interphase - the phase of a cell's life cycle in which
DNA is replicated.
Anaphase - the phase of mitosis in which
Microtubules - tiny filaments (about 25 nanometers
the chromosomes begin to separate.

Centrioles - paired cylindrical organelles,
Metaphase - the phase of mitosis in which the
arranged at right angles to each other,
chromosomes line up at the equator (the central
