  2. Telophase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telophase

    Telophase (from Ancient Greek τέλος 'end, result, completion' and φάσις (phásis) 'appearance') is the final stage in both meiosis and mitosis in a eukaryotic cell. During telophase, the effects of prophase and prometaphase (the nucleolus and nuclear membrane disintegrating) are reversed.

  3. Mitosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitosis

    As this happens, microtubules invade the nuclear space. This is called open mitosis, and it occurs in some multicellular organisms. Fungi and some protists, such as algae or trichomonads, undergo a variation called closed mitosis where the spindle forms inside the nucleus, or the microtubules penetrate the intact nuclear envelope. [45] [46]

  4. Cell cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_cycle

    telophase; A diagram of the mitotic phases. Mitosis is the process by which a eukaryotic cell separates the chromosomes in its cell nucleus into two identical sets in two nuclei. [8] During the process of mitosis the pairs of chromosomes condense and attach to microtubules that pull the sister chromatids to opposite sides of the cell. [9]

  5. Cell division - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cell_division

    In general, mitosis (division of the nucleus) is preceded by the S stage of interphase (during which the DNA replication occurs) and is followed by telophase and cytokinesis; which divides the cytoplasm, organelles, and cell membrane of one cell into two new cells containing roughly equal

  6. Cleavage furrow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cleavage_furrow

    Mitosis includes four phases: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. Prophase is the initial phase when spindle fibers appear that function to move the chromosomes toward opposite poles. This spindle apparatus consists of microtubules, microfilaments and a complex network of various proteins.

  7. PMAT - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PMAT

    Four phases of mitosis: prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase: Prophase: Chromatin into chromosomes, the nuclear envelope breaks down, chromosomes attach to spindle fibers by their centromeres. Metaphase: Chromosomes line up along the metaphase plate (center of the cell). Anaphase: Sister chromatids are pulled to opposite poles of the cell.

  8. Neuronal cell cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuronal_cell_cycle

    After G1, the cells enter S phase during which the DNA is replicated. After S, the cell will enter G2 where the proteins required for mitosis to occur are synthesized. Unlike most cell types however, neurons are generally considered incapable of proliferating once they are differentiated, as they are in the adult nervous system. Nevertheless ...

  9. Cytokinesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytokinesis

    Animal cell telophase and cytokinesis. Animal cell cytokinesis begins shortly after the onset of sister chromatid separation in the anaphase of mitosis. The process can be divided to the following distinct steps: anaphase spindle reorganization, division plane specification, actin-myosin ring assembly and contraction, and abscission. [5]
