During prophase, a stage in the cell cycle,

Question

a
the cell duplicates its genetic material- doubling the number of chromossomes.
b
the nuclear envelope breaks down and chromatin condenses into chromosomes.
c
the cell begins to separate into two new genetically unique cells.
d
the chromosomes in the cell begin to move and align at the equator of the cell.

Answer 1

The correct answer is:

b the nuclear envelope breaks down and chromatin condenses into chromosomes.

During prophase, the chromatin condenses to form visible chromosomes, and the nuclear envelope begins to break down as the cell prepares for chromosome alignment and separation in later stages of mitosis.
