During cell division in apical meristems, the nuclear membrane appears in:
Correct answer: A. Telophase
- A. Telophase
- B. Cytokinesis
- C. Metaphase
- D. Anaphase
Explanation
In apical meristems, mitotic divisions occur at a rapid rate. In the late telophase of mitosis, a nuclear membrane appears on the outside from either pieces of the nuclear envelope or endoplasmic reticulum. The telophase may last as long as prophase.
