Cells primarily rest in interphase. During interphase, cells are not actively dividing and instead perform normal cellular functions, grow, and replicate their DNA in preparation for division.

The correct order of events during mitosis is:

The nuclear membrane dissolves. The mitotic spindle attaches to chromosomes. Microtubules organize the chromosomes.

This reflects the typical sequence where the nuclear envelope breaks down first, allowing the spindle fibers to attach to the chromosomes and pull them into alignment.

In what phase of mitosis do chromosomes split into sister chromatids?(1 point)

anaphase

Chromosomes split into sister chromatids during anaphase. In this phase, the spindle fibers pull the sister chromatids apart toward opposite poles of the cell.
