Chromosomes will line up in metaphase and in anaphase they will split apart.
The phase of the cell cycle that duplicates chromosomes before division is called the S phase.
Ana phase
Chromosomes are attached to spindle fibers during the metaphase phase of the cell division process.
In mitotic division, chromosomes are arranged individually in the middle of the cell at metaphase, whereas in the first division of meiosis, homologous chromosomes are paired together in the middle. This pairing of homologous chromosomes is known as synapsis and is unique to meiosis.
Prophase
DNA condenses into chromosomes during the prophase stage of cell division.
Metaphase.
The phase where chromosomes are lined up in the middle of the cell is called metaphase. During metaphase, the chromosomes align along the cell's equator before they are separated into two sets during cell division.
The phase of cell division when duplicated chromosomes first appear is called the prophase. In prophase, the chromatin condenses into visible chromosomes, and the nuclear envelope breaks down, allowing the chromosomes to be more clearly visible.
Chromosomes can be seen in the metaphase stage of the cell cycle, when they align along the center of the cell prior to division.
Chromosomes are checked for errors.In the G2 phase, growth and preparation for cell division occurs.
Strictly speaking, the chromosomes are not copied during mitosis but already before cell division takes place. This phase is called INTERPHASE and is again divided into three phases, G1 (first gap), S (synthesis), and G2 (second gap). The replication of chromosomes only happens in the S phase.
