Telophase (Telophase)

Telophase is the final stage of cell division that occurs during both mitosis and meiosis. It is the last stage of mitosis and the last stage of the first division of meiosis.

During telophase, a number of important processes occur that allow the cell to complete division. First of all, chromosomes that were separated during the previous stage of mitosis - anaphase, move to opposite poles of the cell due to the contraction of microtubules of the mitotic fiber. When the chromosomes reach their destination, they begin to decondense - loosen and unravel. This allows the cell to begin the process of RNA transcription and prepare to synthesize new proteins.

At the same time, a nuclear membrane begins to form around the chromosomes located at both poles of the cell. This occurs due to the reorganization of mitotic fibers and migration of the endomembrane reticulum. When the nuclear membrane is fully formed, a nucleolus is formed, which contains duplicates of the genetic information from each chromosome.

Telophase also begins the process of cytoplasmic division. Depending on the cell type, this process can occur in different ways. For example, in animals, a ring of actin microfilaments forms around the central part of the cell, which narrow and cut the cell into two parts.

Telophase is an important stage of cell division that allows a cell to separate its genetic material and create two new cells. Thanks to this stage, a reorganization of cellular components necessary for the life of the future cell occurs.

Telophase is one of the stages of mitosis, which is a process accompanied by cell division. During telophase, the centromeres of chromosomes bifurcate, which means the beginning of the stage of the second division process. During this stage, the transcriptional activity of chromosomes increases. At this stage, a new nuclear envelope is also formed, which isolates the nucleoli and areas of the cytoplasm filled with cytoplasm. This process is divided into several stages.

After dividing into two parts, the centrioles begin to move away from each other, forming two division spindles, each of which is responsible for its half of the cell. The chromosomes are then separated from each other and aligned along their daughter
