In which phase of mitosis does the nucleolus reappear?
Think it through first, then pick an option.
- a Telophase
- b Prophase
- c Metaphase
- d Prometaphase
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: a Telophase
In telophase the nuclear membrane forms around the nuclear reticulum and the nucleolus reappears.
Why the other options are wrong
- b Prophase: In prophase the nucleolus starts to fade; it does not come back.
- c Metaphase: In metaphase the nucleolus is completely gone; it reappears later.
- d Prometaphase: In prometaphase the nucleolus keeps disappearing; its return is not here.
