Anaphase- In Mitosis
a) Centromeres divide.
b) Single-stranded chromosomes (now consisting of one DNA molecule each) are pulled to opposite poles by the spindle fibers. – third stage of mitosis
Let’s model mitosis. Focus on drawing the cell nucleus taking care to model the number and location of chromosomes. Although the chromosomes are only visible in each stage, draw them in all stages for clarity sake.
Draw a 2n=4 cell at G1 of interphase.
Draw the same cell at the start of prophase.
Draw the same cell at metaphase.
Draw the cell(s) that result at the end of cytokinesis.

- Fighting Cancer by Disrupting Mitosis Scientists have identified a number of toxins that disrupt mitosis. These toxins can be used in many different ways – some of them are used during scientific research to arrest the cell cycle at specific points so that the cells can be studied. Others have clinical applications as chemotherapeutic drugs that are useful in the treatment of cancer, as well as other types of disease. Study the list of toxins below, and use the information provided and your understanding of mitosis to answer the questions below. Note: some of these drugs are currently approved for clinical use, while others are still in development. For the purposes of this exercise, assume that all of them are available for use.
