| Front | What is Anaphase? |
|---|---|
| Back | 1. Each chromatid becomes a chromosome in its own right 2. Kinetochore microtubules move along by motor proteins in kinetochores gradually pull each chromosome towards the pole it faces 3. nonkinetochore microtubules slide past each other, lengthen, and push the 2 poles of the cell apart 4. Centromeres lead the way and the chromosomal arms dangle behind them 5. Moving and separating the chromosome is helped by the fact that the chromosomes are short, compact bodies 6. Diffuse threads of chromatin would trail, tangle, and break, resulting in imprecise parceling out to the daughter cells |
