What happens after prophase?
A. Metaphase
B. Anaphase
C. Telophase
D. Go phase
SUBMIT

Answer 1

• B. Anaphase ✅✅✅

Step-by-step explanation:

After prophase, the next phase is Anaphase, where the sister chromatids are pulled apart towards opposite ends of the cell.

Answer 2

A. Metaphase

Step-by-step explanation:

Prophase is the first stage of mitosis, during which the chromosomes condense and the spindle fibers form. After prophase, the cell enters metaphase, during which the chromosomes line up along the equator of the cell.

`\textsf{So, The correct answer is \underline{A. Metaphase}}`

The other answer choices are not correct because they are stages of mitosis that occur after metaphase.

• Anaphase is the stage during which the chromosomes separate and move to opposite poles of the cell.
• Telophase is the stage during which the chromosomes decondense and the nuclear envelope reforms.
• Go phase is a stage of the cell cycle in which the cell is not dividing.
