Question

Identify phase in mitosis shown by : centromeres split and thereby sister chromatids of each chromosome separates and they are pulled apart in opposite direction.

• A. Telophase
• B. Prophase
• C. Metaphase
• D. Anaphase

Answer 1

The correct option is A Telophase

1. In Prophase, nuclear envelope degenerates and chromosome condenses.
2. Metaphase is the stage where chromatids align themselves at the equatorial/metaphase plate.
3. Anaphase is marked by splitting of centromeres followed by pulling of sister chromatids of each chromosome towards the opposite poles.
4. Telophase is marked by sister chromatids reaching the opposite poles and the reformation of nuclear vesicles around it.

So, the correct answer is "Telophase".
