  to have two chromatids.
• Prophase

  become visible.
• metaphase

  Replicated chromosomes

  line up along the equator

  of the cell.
• Anaphase

  The chromatids separate

  and move to opposite

  poles of the cell.
• telophase

  each with the

  same number of

  chromosomes as

  form, making

  two daughter
