Part 1: The Mitosis Models -- Key
The following shows the correct sequences for the stages of mitosis (you do not need to distinguish between early and late within a stage). The structures that you need to know are indicated by letter codes; check your answers against the key.
C. | Cytoplasm | N. | Nucleolus | |
Ch. | Chromosome | Z1, Z2. | Centrosome (pair of centrioles) | |
E. | Cleavage Furrow | ZF, ZS. | Spindle Fibers (mitotic spindle) | |
K. | Nucleus |
1. Interphase Note that this is just prior to mitosis, as the centrosome has already been duplicated. |
