centromere area where the two duplicate copies of DNA are held together in a chromosome
metaphase centrioles are at the poles of the cell; spindle fibers connect from the centrioles to the centromeres; chromosomes line up in the middle of the cell
anaphase spindle fibers shorten; chromosomes split at the centromere
telophase nuclear membrane reappears; DNA unwinds from chromosomes into chromatin; overlaps with cytokinesis
cytokinesis division of the cytoplasm
