Question 20 • Biology

During which phase of mitosis do the nuclear membrane, nucleolus, and nucleus dissolve?

Answer
A
prophase
B
metaphase
C
telophase
D
anaphase

Explanation

During prophase, the nucleolus disappears and the nuclear membrane breaks down, allowing the chromosomes to interact with the spindle. So the correct choice is prophase. The nuclear membrane reforms during telophase, rather than dissolving then.
