The DNA of the cell must be duplicated so each resulting daughter cell has a complete copy of the DNA of the parent cell.

What happen before prophase occur?

During prophase, the chromatin fibers present in the nucleus coil tightly into observable chromosomes. The centrosomes move away from each other and spindle microtubules begin to grow from them; this marks the formation of the mitotic spindle.

In which phase of mitotic cell division does the chromosomal movement starts?

Chromosomal movement is present throughout the cell division, but the first prominent movement is when the cell is in metaphase where the chromosomes move to line up at the middle of the cell.

What phase do centromeres break and chromosomes begin migration toward opposite poles of the cell?

During anaphase of cell division, centromeres break apart and chromosomes begin their migration towards opposite poles of the cell. This is a crucial stage where sister chromatids separate and are pulled towards the poles by the mitotic spindle fibers.


What event must occur outside the nucleus before mitosis can begin?

Before mitosis can happen, the chromosomes inside the nucleus must separate to form identical pairs. This sets the stage for each of the daughter cells to have a copy of the DNA to replicate the full sequence.


What is the purpose of a centriole and when do they appear?

Centrioles play an essential role in mitosis. Centrioles replicate during interphase, and in prophase, they move to the poles of the cell and spindle fibers begin to form from these poles. Those are the primary functions of a centriole. It is also important to note that these organelles are only present in animal cells.


During this phase of mitosis two centrioles appear to one side of the nucleus?

During this phase of mitosis, known as prophase, the centrioles move to opposite poles of the cell. As the centrioles migrate, they begin to form the mitotic spindle, the structure that will help separate the chromosomes during cell division.

When does mitosis begin to slow down?

Mitosis begins to slow down during old age and as cells reach their Hayflick limit, which is around 40-60 cell divisions. As cells age, the efficiency and accuracy of cell division diminish, leading to a decline in mitotic activity.
