Prophase , from the ancient Greek before and stage , is a stage of mitosis in which the chromatin condenses it becomes shorter and fatter into double rod shaped structures called chromosomes in which the chromatin becomes visible. This process, called chromatin condensation , is mediated by the condensin complex. Since the genetic material has been duplicated in an earlier phase of the cell cycle , there are two identical copies of each chromosome in the cell, call homologous chromosomes. Identical chromosomes, called sister chromatid s, are attached to each other at a DNA element present on every chromosome called the centromere . Also during prophase, giemsa staining can be applied to elicit G banding in chromosomes. Also, once the chromosomes form, the nucleolus fades. Prophase accounts for approximately 3 of the cell cycle s duration. An important organelle in mitosis is the centrosome , the microtubule organizing center in metazoans . During prophase, the two centrosomes, which replicate independently of mitosis, have their microtubule activity increased due to the recruitment of tubulin. The centrosomes will be pushed apart to opposite ends of the cell nucleus by the action of molecular motor s acting on the microtubules. Basically, the chromatin in the nucleus coils into chromosomes. The nucleolus disintegrates and the centrosomes move to opposite poles of the cell, forming a bridge of spindle fibers. Prometaphase , the next step of mitosis, will see the nuclear membrane fall apart and the chromosomes being captured by the microtubules. ref cite web title Biology of plants chapter Section 1.

BimC is a subfamily of KRP s and its function is to separate the duplicated centrosomes during mitosis . Early in prophase , while the nuclear envelope is still intact, dynamic microtubules from each aster spindle overlap at their plus ends.

Unreferenced date January 2008 A bivalent , sometimes referred to as a tetrad , is a pair of associated homologous chromosome s held together by a complex after chromosome replication. During meiosis the Prophase I stage of Meiosis I , the process of synapsis occurs in which bivalents are formed. Each replicated chromosome is composed of two chromatid s. Bivalents are formed as two homologous chromosomes undergo recombination. Chromosome movement to accommodate recombination places homologous chromosomes close enough to each other for a protein complex synaptonemal complex , consisting of a protein ZIP1 ZYP1 depending on species , to hold them together. This protein s sequence is not well conserved, though its structure is very similar in all species globular domains on the N and C termini with a well defined core . In the atypical model species D. melanogaster and C. elegans recombination occurs secondarily to synapsis. Most species Human, Mouse, Arabidopsis, Maize, Yeast, Lily, and many others create bivalents as a result of DNA repair and recombination. Recombination produces chiasmata which hold chromosomes together after the synaptonemal complex dissolves.

An aster is a cell biology cellular structure shaped like a star symbol star , formed around each centrosome during mitosis in an animal cell. ref Campell Biology , p.221 ref Astral rays, composed of microtubules , radiate from the centrosphere and look like a cloud. During mitosis, there are four stages of cell division Prophase , Metaphase , Anaphase , and Telophase . During prophase, two aster covered centrosomes migrate to opposite sides of the Cell nucleus nucleus in preparation of mitotic spindle formation. During metaphase, the astral rays connect to the lined up chromosomes at their centromere . Afterwards, during anaphase, the astral rays pull the chromosomes apart into its individual chromatids and pull them towards the centrosomes, located at opposite ends of the cell. This allows the cell to divide properly with each daughter cell containing full replicas of chromosomes. In some cells, the positions of the asters also determine the site of cell divisions.

unreferenced date June 2009 Telophase pronounced tee low faze or tell uh faze from the ancient Greek end and stage , is a stage in both meiosis and mitosis in a eukaryote eukaryotic cell biology cell . During telophase, the effects of prophase and prometaphase the nuclear membrane and nucleolus disintegrating are reversed. Two daughter Cell nucleus nuclei form in the cell. The nuclear envelopes of the daughter cells are formed from the fragments of the nuclear envelope of the parent cell. As the nuclear membrane forms around each pair of chromatid s, the nucleoli reappear. The chromosomes also unwind back into the chromatin they are supposed to be. Telophase accounts for approximately 2 of the cell cycle s duration. Image TelophaseIF.jpg thumb Reappearance of the nuclear membrane and nucleolus the Telophase Cytokinesis usually occurs at the same time that the nuclear envelope is reforming, yet they are distinct processes. In plant cells, vesicles derived from the Golgi apparatus move to the middle of the cell along a microtubule scaffold called the phragmoplast . This structure directs packets of cell wall materials which coalesce into a disk shaped structure called a cell plate . The cell plate grows out centrifugally and eventually develops into a proper cell wall, separating the two nuclei. Once this is finished, mitosis is complete, and Cytokinesis begins.

In humans they start to develop between weeks 4 and 8 and are present in the fetus between weeks 5 and 30. Once the primordial germ cells have arrived in the ovary , they develop into oogonia. Oogonia migrate from the yolk sac to the genital ridge site of the future ovaries located on the posterior abdominal wall. Oogonia develop by mitosis . However, some of them become primary oocytes , which begin meiosis which is halted in prophase I. When they have entered Prophase I of meiosis they become primary oocyte s it is important to note that this process is complete before birth, in contrast to spermatogenesis . Primary oocytes are present from week 10 until menopause at 53 years in human females. in thallophytes In phycology and mycology , oogonium refers to a female gametangium if the union of the male motile or non motile and the female gamete takes place within this structure. ref name Stegenga, Bolton and Anderson 97 Stegenga, H.
