Interphase - The part of the cell cycle where the cell is not dividing and the chromosomes are not visible., Prophase - Chromosomes become visible, the nucleolus disappears and the nuclear envelope breaks down. The chromosomes start to be drawn to the equator of the cell., Metaphase - Chromosomes are made up of 2 chromatids joined at the centromere. Chromosomes line up along the equator of the cell. Spindle fibres are attached., Anaphase - The centromere divides and the spindle fibres pull the chromatids apart. The chromatids move to their respective poles. This required energy from the mitochondria., Telophase - Chromosomes at the poles start to disappear, the spindle fibre disintergrates and the nucleus reforms., Cytokinesis - The cytoplasm divides to create 2 identical cells,
