Which stage of mitosis is NOT correctly linked to its defining characteristics?
A. Prophase: chromosomes condense, microtubules attach to centromeres, nuclear membrane breaks down
B. Metaphase: chromosomes drawn by microtubules to equator of spindle, divide at centromere into chromatids
C. Anaphase: spindle poles move apart, pulling apart attached chromatids
D. Telophase: The two sets of chromatids are at opposite poles; cells enter prophase
Answer:D
