Question

Tom described a certain phase in mitosis as follows: The centromere splits. The paired chromosomes separate and shift to the opposite sides of the cell, which stretches the cell. Which of the following phases will take place just after the phase described by Tom?

Anaphase
Metaphase
Prophase
Telophase
!!!PLEASE HELP!!!

Answer 1

Ik I'm late but Telophase

Step-by-step explanation:

took the quiz and got it right

Answer 2

I'm not 100% sure, but I think its the Telophase.

Step-by-step explanation:

The third phase of mitosis is called anaphase. This is when the separation starts. The centromere of each chromosome splits. The spindle fibers shorten and pull the sister chromatids apart until they are on opposite ends of the cell. Each chromatid is now a single, unreplicated chromosome. As a result of this, the cell stretches out. The phase after this is telophase.
