Question #1
In which phase of mitosis does the nuclear envelope reform around the chromosomes?
A. Telophase
B. Anaphase
C. Prophase
D. Metaphase

Correct Answer: Option A


Explanation:
During telophase, the chromatids reach the poles, decondense, and the nuclear envelope reassembles around each set, forming two daughter nuclei. The spindle disappears. Prophase involves nuclear envelope breakdown, metaphase aligns chromosomes, and anaphase separates chromatids. Cytokinesis often overlaps with telophase, dividing the cytoplasm.
