It is during anaphase that the sister chromotids separate and the chromosomes move towards opposite ends of the poles.

The answer is anaphase.

When chromosomes cease their poleward movement, the telophase phase begins. The telophase phase includes the nuclear membrane and nucleoi reapper.

The chromosomes cease their poleward movement during telophase. This is a very important stage in the process of mitosis.

What phase do cells stop dividing in?

G0 phase. A cell which has entered G0 phase will never undergo division again.


What happens before mitosis begins?

the stage before mitosis is called interphase and majority of the time the cell has is spent in interphase. during interphase the cell acquires nutrients and the DNA replicates.


What makes tumor cells radiosensitive?

Simply: tumor cells tend to be more radiosensitive because they spend more time on average undergoing uncontrolled mitosis than normal cells. Since mitosis is the most sensitive phase of the cell cycle (phase through which the cell is most easily lethally damaged by radiation), their risk is increased. On another note, depending on which genes are causing the cell to become cancerous, certain blockers that would prevent a cell whose DNA had been damaged by radiation might not stop that cell from moving into mitosis, failing, and committing apoptosis (preprogrammed cell death).


When do chromosomes line up at the equator of a cell?

Chromosomes line up with their centromeres on the equator during metaphase of any eukaryotic cell division: mitosis, meiosis I, or meiosis II.During metaphase the arms of the chromosomes are spread out, but it will be the centromeres that lead the way towards the poles during anaphase. This is because in metaphase some spindle fibers, which are formed by the cytoskeleton, attach to the centromeres. It is the contraction of these fibers that pulls the chromosomes (daughter-chromosomes in mitosis and meiosis II) towards the poles in anaphase.There is an important checkpoint during metaphase. If the spindle fibers are not correctly attached, division should stop. However, a few mistakes slip through the net, and sometimes both daughter-chromosomes of a pair (in other words, a pair of former sister-chromatids) move to the same pole. This phenomenon is called non-disjunction, and leads to an abnormal number of chromosomes in both daughter-nuclei.


Is this a correct of false statement- when normal cells stop dividing they always stop after metaphase in mitosis?

Cell division is complete after cytokinesis in which the cytoplasm is divided and there are two complete cells. A cell may enter a period that they will not divide and may never again which is in the Gap 1 phase. It takes certain enzymes to push the cell into S phase and therefore divide again.

What phase are most cells in when they stop dividing?

In between divisions cells enter interphase. During interphase the cell is growing in preparation for the next division. Cells that are no longer dividing are considered to be in senescence. Senescent cells are not growing or replicating their DNA.

Regulatory proteins that serve to prevent a cell from entering the S phase?

The regulatory proteins that serve to prevent a cell from entering the S phase are called tumor suppressors. Tumor suppressors protect the cell that has DNA damage and stop it from moving to the next phase.


What phase(s) of mitosis are chromosomes visible?

InterphaseBefore a cell can enter cell division, it needs to prepare itself by replicating its genetic information and all of the organelles. All of the preparations are done during the interphase. Interphase proceeds in three stages, G1, S, and G2. Cell division operates in a cycle. Therefore, interphase is preceded by the previous cycle of mitosis and cytokenesis. [Diagram showing the cell cycle. The size of the arrows show the relative length of each stage of the cell cycle. Notice mitosis (M) is quite short.]G1 PhaseAfter mitosis is complete the new daughter cell begins to accelerate its biochemical processes which were slowed down by mitosis. The length of the G1 phase creates the difference between fast dividing cells and slowly dividing cells. The G1 phase can be slowed by reducing the nutrients available in a system - thus the cell will take longer to build up the resources necessary for cell division. If there is a severe depletion in nutrients the cells can virtually stop growing. It is interesting to note that cells that aren't growing are always stopped in the G1 phase, being mitotically arrested. This suggests that once the cell enters the S phase, it is committed to cell division, regardless of the external cell conditions.[Animal cell interphase. The DNA has been replicated. Also, notice the increased cell size as the cytoplasm has been enlarged.]S PhaseThe S phase begins with the replication of the cellular DNA. This is described in further detail in DNA replication. When the cellular DNA has been duplicated, leaving the cell with twice as many chromosomes (each chromosome is made up of two identical chromatids), the cell moves onto the G2 phase.G2 PhaseDuring this phase proteins, such as kinase (which catalyzes protein phosphorylation), which are necessary for cell division are synthesized at this time. The chromosome begins to condense and the proteins necessary for construction of the mitotic spindle also are synthesized. When the chromosomes become visible the cell enters the first stage of mitosis, prophase.Continue on to Mitosis 1: Prophase


Is mitosis a way to stop cancer cells from dividing?

No, mitosis is actually the cause of cancer. Well, unregulated mitosis that is. Cancer is basically uncontrolled cell division.
