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.
