Question

During cell division, centromeres have separated, and chromatids are pulled apart, becoming chromosomes. What happens after the chromosomes are pulled to opposite ends of the cell?
A Prophase
B Anaphase
C Metaphase
D Telophase

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is: telophase.

Explanation:

Mitosis is a fundamental process in the body that consists of a cell dividing itself in order to generate two identical daughter cells.

As a preparation for Mitosis, DNA is replicated (during phase S of the cell cycle) and then condensated into smaller structures called chromosomes (prophase). Then the chromosomes arrive to the equatorium of the cell (metaphase). Once in the equatorium, the chromatids (each arm of the chromosome) are separated and pulled to the opposite ends of the cell (anaphase). With the chromatids on each side, the cell now begins telophase, a step in which every process that occurred in prophase is reversed - this is to finalize cell division.

Answer 2

Telophase, - During telophase, the nuclear membrane reforms around each set of chromosomes, and the spindle fibers are dismantled.
