Correct Option: C
Without a diagram, it is impossible to determine the specific stage of cell division being illustrated. However, I can explain the characteristics of each stage of mitosis:
- Interphase: The cell grows and DNA replicates. The chromosomes are not yet visible.
- Prophase: The chromosomes condense and become visible. The nuclear envelope begins to break down.
- Metaphase: The chromosomes line up along the middle of the cell.
- Anaphase: The sister chromatids separate and move to opposite poles of the cell.
To correctly answer the question, the diagram must be examined. Once the stage of the image is known, the corresponding answer choice can be selected.
