Untitled[edit]

If cytokinesis comes after telophase, how does the image show completed cytokinesis with telophase going on. -Ambuj Saxena (talk) 20:11, 12 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Cytokinesis can start roughly halfway through telophase, IIRC. Telophase is the division of the nucleus, cytokinesis is the division of the cell membrane, just as long as they don't interfere with each other, they can occur at the same time for efficiency.

telpohase[edit]

nuclear envelopes and nucleoli reappear; chromosomes resume chromatin form; mitotic spindle disappears.

What happens when[edit]

what happens when the chromosomes seprate at the centromeeres and move towarne the centrioles—Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.67.6.11 (talk • contribs)

What you're talking about is around late anaphase, so in telophase, the chromotids (separated chromosomes) will attach to their other pair and turn back into chromosomes again. The nuclear membrane develops around the chromosomes, and the cleavage furrow appears, and cytokenesis occurs.

There is no "attach(ing) to their other pair", the separated chromatids are each complete daughter chromosomes. Also, cytokinesis is a separate process and not a part of telophase itself.--Khajidha (talk) 15:40, 16 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

cell plate - cleavage furrow[edit]

Corrected the following statement on the image: "The pinching is known as the "Cell Plate" in plant cells" to say "cleavage furrow." The cell plate starts in the center of the plant cell and grows outwards until it hits the cell wall. There is no pinching in plant cells, therefore the image does not represent a plant cell. - tameeria 23:37, 5 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

ACTUALLY, I think that was an analogy that just wasn't worded well.

Meiosis[edit]

Shouldn't this article cover Telophase I and II in Meiosis as well? Or is there already one on that? Mooski Magnus 03:31, 22 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Chromatins[edit]

I believe Chromosomes are composed of chromatins as chromatin just means DNA w/ the appropriate proteins attached. But when you say "Both sets of chromosomes, now surrounded by new nuclei, unfold back into chromatin." it seems as if you are referring that Chromosomes in a condensed for of chromatin and vise-versa. If that is hard to understand, I'm basically saying that it' almost as saying "Both sets of chromosomes, now surrounded by new nuclei, unfold back into [DNA]." Which creates a bit of a confusion in presenting the idea just saying that the chromosomes decondense or unfold may have been better. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.2.8.47 (talk) 00:53, 10 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Chromosomes is a condensed form of chromotin. But I agree with you because it really is confusing after all.

Is telephase the shortest stage of Mitiosis?[edit]

I need to know what the shortest stage of Mitosis is........ need instant answers! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 207.157.248.130 (talk) 19:53, 12 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Changed rating to "high" as high school/SAT biology content, part of mitosis. - tameeria 22:30, 18 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]
