What are the main events of the first mitotic period? |
|
Answer» The first mitotic period is prophase. During prophase the following events occur: migration of each centriole pair (centrioles were duplicated in interphase) to opposite cell poles; aster formation around the centriole pairs; formation of the spindle fibres between the two centriole pairs; end of chromosome condensation; the disintegration of the nucleolus; breaking of the karyotheca; dispersion of condensed chromosomes in the cytoplasm; binding of chromosomes to the spindle fibres. |
