Place the following events in the order in which they occur during the cell cycle by numbering them from 1. In addition, indicate whether each process occurs during G1,S,G2 prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase, or cytokinesis. For the purposes of this question, assume the cell cycle starts with the beginning of interphase. ___ Spindle poles separate and move toward cell periphery _ Cell growth (after DNA replication) _ Nuclear envelope breakdown _ Cleavage furrow formation _ Sister chromatids move towards spindle poles _ Alignment of chromosome along cell equator _ Interpolar microtubule interactions begin _ Complete chromosome decondensation _ Nuclear lamin dephosphorylation _ DNA replication _ Kinetochore microtubule attachment to chromosomes _ Sister chromatid condensation _ Beginning of contractile ring assembly _ Nuclear envelope reassembly _ Centrosome duplication _ Suspension of cell cycle until all chromosomes attach to mitotic spindle _ Astral microtubule nucleation _ Sister chromatid separation ___ Complete separation of one cell into two new daughter cells
