In which stage of mitosis spindle fibres get disappeared?

Solution

Mitosis:

  1. Mitosis is also referred to as equational division as it results in the formation of two daughter cells containing the same number of chromosomes as in the parent cell.
  2. Mitosis is divided into four stages that is prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.

Spindle fibers:

  1. Spindle fibers are a type of protein that divides a cell's genetic material.
  2. During both types of nuclear division, mitosis and meiosis, the spindle is required to evenly divide the chromosomes in a parental cell into two daughter cells.

Telophase:

  1. It is the stage in mitosis in which spindle fibers get disappeared.
  2. The end of the polar migration of the daughter chromosomes marks the beginning of telophase.
  3. The chromosomes start to unfold and become less and less condensed by a process that in some ways recapitulates prophase, but in the reverse direction.
