1. Prophase is important because a.) It breaks down the nuclear membrane
b.) It condenses chromosomes so they can be separated
c.) The centriols move to opposite ends of the cell
d.) All of the above

d.) All of the above

Explanation:

Prophase is the first stage of mitosis. In this phase, the DNA condenses into chromosomes. The nuclear membrane breaks down, and the centrioles move to opposite sides of the cell.

The next phase is metaphase, where the condensed chromosomes move to the centre of the cell.

Next, during anaphase, the chromosomes are separated to either end of the cell

Finally, during telophase and cytokinesis, the nuclear membrane reforms and the chromosomes begin to decondense, and the cytoplasm splits to form two cells.

d. cellulose and starch
