The spindle apparatus disintegrates during _____. anaphase telophase interphase metaphase
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer;

-Telophase

Explanation;

-The spindle apparatus disintegrates during the telophase of mitosis. Telophase is the final stage of mitosis.

-During this phase, the sister chromatids reach opposite poles. The small nuclear vesicles in the cell begin to re-form around the group of chromosomes at each end.

-As the nuclear envelope re-forms by associating with the chromosomes, two nuclei are created in the one cell. Telophase is also marked by the dissolution of the kinetochore microtubules and the continued elongation of the polar microtubules.

Phoenix [80]
This startle reflex (aka moro reflex) is/was present in us as newborns.

It's triggered when there's an unexpected reaction. Example: Loud noise, sudden movement.

The baby will tighten his/her body, fling out arms, sort of like giving him/herself a hug. It happens because the baby is trying to protect itself from harm.

It normally leaves thanks to the mother's care, normally 6 weeks after the newborn is born.
