Telophase is the fifth and final phase of mitosis, the process that separates the duplicated genetic material carried in the nucleus of a parent cell into two identical daughter cells. Telophase begins once the replicated, paired chromosomes have been separated and pulled to opposite sides, or poles, of the cell.
Grand juries consist of 16 to 23 jurors (it's up to the judge), but 12 yes votes are always required for an indictment. Grand jurors are selected from the same voter registration rolls used to pick ordinary federal jurors. Hundreds are summoned when a new jury is needed and then the judge excuses people who would find it especially burdensome to give up two or three days a week for a year and a half. As a result, grand jurors are generally retirees, the unemployed, or government employees.
Juries are selected from the jury pool. In criminal cases, the jury is made up of twelve jurors, except in the rare case of the parties agreeing to fewer. In civil cases, the jury can consist of as few as six jurors or as many as twelve. Alternate jurors may also be chosen to avoid unnecessary delays or expense in the event of the incapacity of a juror.
