The chromosome pairs are lined up in the center of the cell, parts of the cytoskeleton have formed the mitotic spindle and are preparing to pull the pairs apart.

What is chromosomes line up in mitosis to known phase?

In Mitosis and Meiosis, this event is called Metaphase.


What event occurs during metaphase?

The chromosomes attach to a spindle fiber across the equator of the cell.


What order does the mitosis stage occur in?

ProphaseMetaphaseAnaphaseTelophaseSometimes, people will include a fifth event, called prometaphse, where the nuclear envelope disappears and the spindles form. Generally, this phase is classified with prophase.

What is the main event in telophase?

Cytokinesis is one of the last steps and it occurs after mitosis, its just as important. Cytokinesis is the step where the split in cleavage furrow is formed and cytoplasm is divided into two exact daughter cells.

What happens after mitosis in order for two daughter cells to be produced?

You may be looking for "cytokinesis," the event that occurs after mitosis and results in the splitting of the actual cell cytoplasm into two distinct daughter cells. Cytokinesis is sometimes written as part of the telophase stage of mitosis, but is in fact a separate process that occurs after telophase.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cytokinesis
