Which of the following options gives the correct sequence of events during mitosis?
Explanation
Crossing over does not occur in mitosis.
Detailed Solution
(i) Condensation of DNA so that chromosomes become visible occurs during early to mid-prophase.
(ii) Nuclear membrane disassembly begins at late prophase or the transition to metaphase.
(iii) Arrangement of chromosomes at the equator (congression) occurs during metaphase.
(iv) Centromere division occurs during anaphase, forming daughter chromosomes.
(v) Segregation also occurs during anaphase as daughter chromosomes separate and move to opposite poles.
(vi) Telophase leads to the formation of two daughter nuclei.
