Mitosis
interphase
starts with diploid cell
DNA replicates
organelles replicate
Prophase
chromatid condenses into chromosomes
spindle fibres emerge from centrisome
nuclear envelope breaks down
Prometaphase
spindles attach to chromatids
centrisomes move towards centre of cell
Metaphase
spindle is fully developed
chromosomes line up
sister chromatids are attached to spindle from opposite poles
Anaphase
sister chromatids break down into seperate chromosomes
spindles contract-> pull chromosomes towards opp. poles
Telophase
chromosomes arrive at opposite poles-> uncoil into chromatin
nuclear envelope starts to form around chromosomes
spindle breaks down
Cytokinesis
cytoplasm divides
diploid daughter cells
