When chromosomes reach the opposite poles, they terminate_ and start_.
Correct answer: B. Anaphase, telophase
- A. Prophase, metaphase
- B. Anaphase, telophase
- C. Metaphase, anaphase
- D. Telophase, interphase
Explanation
Anaphase is the critical microtubules phase of cell division which ensures equal distribution of chromatids in the daughter cells. In anaphase, chromosomes get separated (due to division of centromere) and move to opposite poles. This terminates anaphase and now early telophase starts in which the nuclear membrane and nucleolus reappear while chromosomes decondense to form Chromatin.

About Cell Structure and Function
Animal, plant, prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells are compared through their membranes, cell walls, nuclei and cytoplasmic organelles. The work includes the structures and functions of mitochondria, chloroplasts, ribosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus and lysosomes, as well as chromosome organization and the distinction between chromatin and chromosomes.
