cell?
4.During which stage do the chromosomes replicate?

5.The drawing shown has been made from a photograph showing a cell undergoing
mitosis. Based on the drawing, in which stage of mitosis must the cell have been

6.The drawings A-E show stages of mitosis (not in order) in an animal cell.

A B C D E

(a)Which of the drawings (A-E) shows…


(i)interphase______ (DNA replicated)
(ii)prophase______ (chromosomes – 2 sister chromatids – shorten)
(iii)metaphase______ (sister chromatids line up)
(iv)anaphase______ (sister chromatids separate)
(v)telophase ______ (new nucleus forms a each end)
(vi)cytokinesis______ (cell contents divided between 2 daughter cells)

mitosis to take place.
___________________ of the cell and ______________________________ of
