There are five phases: prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase. Final physical cell division after telophase, cytokinesis is frequently regarded as the sixth stage of mitosis with Centrosomes.

1. Mitosis begins with the prophase.

Chromosomes gather and are made visible.

Centrosomes are the origin of spindle fibres.

Nucleolus dissolves as nuclear envelope disintegrates.

2. Second stage of mitosis known as prometaphase.

Chromosomes continue to compact.

At the centromeres, kinetochores are visible.

Centrosomes travel in the direction of their opposite poles as mitotic spindle microtubules attach to kinetochores.

3. Metaphase is the third mitotic division.

The mitotic spindle has reached its full size, the centrosomes are at the poles of the cell, and the chromosomes are aligned at the metaphase plate. Each sister chromatid is attached to a spindle fibre that originates from the opposing poles. In the middle is each chromosome.

4. Anaphase is the fourth stage of mitosis.

Previously joined together by cohesin proteins, sister chromatids (now known as chromosomes) split and are drawn in opposing directions.

Non-kinetochore spindle fibres lengthen as the cell does.

5. The fifth stage of mitosis is called telophase.

The nuclear envelope material that surrounds each set of chromosomes decondenses as the chromosomes arrive at opposite poles.

6. The sixth and last stage of mitosis is cytokinesis.

Animal cells: the daughter cells are divided by a cleavage furrow.

A cell plate separates the daughter cells in plant cells.

the splitting of the cytoplasm into the two distinct daughter cells.

A population that is isolated in a remote environment is still able to experience genetic variation How could genetic variation
goblinko [34]

A mistake in DNA replication before meiosis produces an organism that is better able to outrun predators.

Explanation:

The genetic variation results from the different alleles of a population. The mutation or mistake in DNA replication would cause gene variants which may be beneficial. The variation in the DNA sequence of genome results in variants in small population.

Genetic variation is the cause of natural selection and eventually, evolution takes place with beneficial traits.

It is mentioned in the question that resulting offspring having received the mutant allele could result in better surviving capabilities or phenotypic traits as they are able to outrun predators.

What type of cellular transport is the diffusion of water, active or passive?
Dominik [7]
Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a semi-permeable (or differentially permeable or selectively permeable) membrane. The cell membrane, along with such things as dialysis tubing and cellulose acetate sausage casing, is such a membrane. The presence of a solute decreases the water potential of a substance.
