During prophase, chromatin fibers condense into chromosome pairs. The centrosomes move away from each other and spindle microtubules grow from them; in other words, the mitotic spindle begins to form.

Prophase:

During this first mitotic stage, the nucleolus fades and chromatin (replicated DNA and associated proteins) condenses into chromosomes. Each replicated chromosome comprises two chromatids, both with the same genetic information. Microtubules of the cytoskeleton, responsible for cell shape, motility and attachment to other cells during interphase, disassemble. And the building blocks of these microtubules are used to grow the mitotic spindle from the region of the centrosomes.

In summery chromatin condenses into chromosomes; centrioles move toward opposite poles of the cell.

During prophase the chromatin DNA is condensed into the visible chromosomes, the centrioles begin to migrate to opposite ends of the cell so that the mitotic spindle can be formed. At the end of prophase, or in prometaphase depending on how you divide mitosis, the nuclear envelope breaks down.

in the prophase of mitosis the chromatin in the nucleus start condensing and form definite rod like structures,while these changes happen the rest of the cell structures ,except the nucleus disappear.The centrioles which are generally absent in plant cells appear and move to the opposite ends of the nucleus.Prophase is next followed by Metaphase

The DNA condenses from chromatin to chromosomes and the nuclear membrane starts to disintegrate.

What phase happens during mitosis?

Prophase.


What stage does chromatin condense to chromosomes?

During mitosis, chromosomes are in their most condensed form during metaphase


What happens during prophase you that does not happen during mitosis?

Prophase is one of the stages in the process of mitosis, the stages of mistosis are : 1. Prophase 2. Metaphase 3. Anaphase 4. Telophase. So metaphase, anaphase, and telophase are what happends in mitosis and does not happen in prophase. And what happens in prophase that does not in mitosis is that the sister chromatids that were formed during interphase have shortened and thickened and are now visible with a light microscope.


Chromosomes form during what?

Chromosomes form during Prophase of Mitosis.


What is the phase in mitosis where the nuclear membrane disappears?

"scientist have not discovered WHY it happens"It does not matter if scientists have discovered it or not, but the nuclear membrane disappears during PROPHASEHope this helped!!!


What happens to homologous chromosomes during prophase 1 of meiosis which does not occur during prophase of mitosis?

In mitosis each daughter cell ends up with the same number of chromosomes as the mother cell.


In what phase does chromosomes condense and become visible?

The chromosomes in a cell's nucleus are only visible during the part of the cell cycle known as prophase. Prophase is the stage of mitosis in which chromatin condensation occurs.


Does the nucleus disappear during mitosis and meiosis?

Yes, the nucleus dissipates during late prophase and early metaphase in mitosis, and during Prophase 1/diakinesis of meiosis.


The phase of mitosis in which doubling of the centrioles occurs is?

Centrioles double during the prophase of mitosis. Prophase is also the phase where DNA enters the chromosomes and are replicated.


During which stage of mitosis does the nucleus break down?

telophase (4th)


When do chromosomes become visable during mitosis?

prophase


Which period are chromosomes duplicated in?

During the cell cycle, chromosomes are duplicated during the interphase.
