The four main phases of mitosis are:

Prophase- In the first half:The chromosomes start to shrink. The cytoskeleton begins to form the mitotic spindle, which will grow between the centrosomes and organize the chromosomes.The nucleolus goes away.
                  In the second half: The chromosomes become extremely compact. The nuclear envelope disappears and all the DNA comes out. Some of the mitotic spindle starts to catch chromosomes.

Metaphase- The mitotic spindle moves all of the chromosomes across the middle of the cell.

Anaphase- The two chromatids of each chromosome are pulled apart from each other and become their own chromosomes. Loose microtubules push the ends of the cell to make it longer.

Telophase- The mitotic spindle is broken back down into microtubules. Two new nuclei appear (one for each new cell). The chromosomes return to their normal form (not all squished down).

Another big step is cytokinesis, which starts either during Anaphase, or Telophase. In animal cells, the cell is pinched around the middle to create the two new cells. In plant cells, a cell plate comes into the middle of the cell and separates it into the two new cells.

The main four steps can be remembered using the acronym PMAT.

adoni [48]

Answer:

D . Energy flows from the Sun or from rocks through the primary producers and the  successive levels of consumers.

Explanation:

Energy flows only through the sun not the rock because sun is the ultimate source of energy which can be used by the plants for making their own food in the form of glucose during the process of photosynthesis. This plant is then eaten by primary consumer known as herbivore. These primary consumer is eaten by secondary consumer is called carnivores. The tertiary consumer feeds on the secondary consumer and so on. In the end, decomposers feed on the dead bodies of animals and releases nutrients which can be used again by the plants for making food.

alexandr1967 [171]
The fetal heart rate which will be of most concern to the nurse is the SINUSOIDAL PATTERN HEART RATE.
This is because, a sinusoidal pattern heart rate is an indication that the autonomic nervous control that ought to control the fetal heart rate is absent due to serious lack of oxygen at the tissue level. RH sensitization, fetal hydrops and anemia are  usually associated with sinusoidal pattern. In order to improve the fetal outcome in this case given above, cesarean section should be considered for the patient\.
