Prophase chromatin coils up into short fat rods called chromosomes nuclear envelop disappears spindle fibers begin to form nucleolus disappears

Metaphase the pair of chromosomes that are attached to spindle fibers are aligned at the metaphase plate

Anaphase the sister chromatids separates and chromosomes pull apart identical copies are pulled part to each side of the cell by the spindle fibers

Telophase a new set of nucleolus forms along with the nuclear membrane as well as the nucleolus the cell plate appears and begins to slip in two while the spindle fibers fade and the chromosomes uncoil so the cell can make proteins.

Daughter cells (Interphase) the cell has divided and there are now two daughter cells that are exactly alike

              a - Blue - cell membrane
              b - Green - nuclear membrane
              c - Yellow - nucleolus
              d - Red - chromatin / d' - chromosomes
              e - Brown - chromatics / e' - chromosomes
              f - Orange ñ chromatics / f'- chromosomes
              f¾ - Light green ñ chromatin
              h - Grey ñ centrioles
              j - Purple ñ spindle fibers
