Textbook Question
Chapter 12, Problem 3IQ
The following diagrams will depict the five stages of mitosis in an animal cell after you draw in the missing chromosomes and kinetochore microtubules in stages c, d, and e. For simplicity, this cell has only four chromosomes, as you can see in stages b and f. Identify the stages and label the indicated structures.

List in each blank the description of events associated with each stage of mitosis in addition to the preparatory stage Interphase. Some events and structures occur only in plant cells and some in animal cells. Mark these events in the list with an asterisk.
Draw diagrams for each phase of Mitosis in the correct order. Including Mitosis as part of the cell cycle is beneficial but not required.
Identify the most important relevant details about each phase. There are at least 2 details or terms associated with each phase. Please use the proper names for parts such as centromeres, spindle fibres, etc.
