Mitosis Keynote I use in 8th Grade

1. Mitosis
Cell Reproduction

2. Mitosis
The nucleus divides to
form two identical nuclei.
Cells divide in FIVE
stages.

3. 5 Phases of Mitosis
Interphase
Prophase
Metaphase
Anaphase
Telophase

4. INTERPHASE
Cell’s chromosomes
duplicated
The nucleolus is
clearly visible

5. ! PROPHASE
Chromatid pairs are
visible
Spindle Fiber begins to
form
Nuclear membrane
breaking down.

6. Metaphase
Chromatid pairs line up in
center of the cell.
Spindle fiber connects
chromosomes to centrioles

7. ANAPHASE
Chromosomes separate.
Spindle fiber pulls
chormosomes towards the
centrioles.

8. TELOPHASE
Cytoplasm begins to
separate.
New nucleus forms.

9. Mitosis Ends
Both new identical cells
enter interphase.
