- Mitosis (Name the cell division phase on the line.) DNA and centrosomes are replicated. Name: Chromatin condenses and supercoils to form dense chromosomes. Since DNA was previously replicated, the chromosomes are now present as paired sister chromatids. Centrosomes move to opposite sides of the nucleus and will define the orientation of the division. Name: DOarrow_forwardSomatic cells from two different people usually contain ____________________. identical RNA profiles diploid nuclei different numbers of autosomes equal numbers of mitochondriaarrow_forwardDuring cell division, one of the daughter cells ended up with one more chromosome than the other daughter cell.
