a. Name the parts labelled 1, 2 and 3.

b. Identify the above stage and give a reason to support your answer.

c. Mention where in the body this type of cell division occurs.

d. Name the stage prior to this stage and draw a diagram to represent the same.

Answers:

a. 1- Centromere

2- Spindle fibres

3- Chromatids

b. By looking at the diagram above we can say that it is a late anaphase for mitosis in an animal cell. It can be identified by two chromatids of each chromosome separated and further pulled away by opposite poles pulled by spindle fibres. The trench begins in the cell membrane in the middle of the animal cell.

c. It is mitotic division and this kind of cell division occurs in all the cells of the body except for the reproductive cells.

d. The stage prior to the late anaphase stage is metaphase. + CC PIC 5
