Match the steps of mitosis with the description

Question

Microtubules pull the lined-up chromosomes apart

The spindle lines up the chromosomes down the center of the cell

Two new nuclei form, chromosomes unravel and spread out

The cell begins to prepare for replication

The cytoplasm divides, forming 2 identical daughter cells

Answers:

telophase  metaphase  prophase  anaphase  cytokinesis

Answer 1

telophase - Two new nuclei form, chromosomes unravel and spread out
metaphase - The spindle lines up the chromosomes down the center of the cell
prophase - The cell begins to prepare for replication
anaphase - Microtubules pull the lined-up chromosomes apart
cytokinesis - The cytoplasm divides, forming 2 identical daughter cells

Answer 2

During cell division, how do chromosomes move to opposite poles of the cell? (1 point)
They move randomly throughout the cell. They are pushed by the cell membrane. They replicate to create new chromosomes. They are pulled by spindle fibers.
They are carried by ribosomes.

Answer 3

The correct answer is: They are pulled by spindle fibers.
