3. | Transition to metaphase | 4. | Early metaphase |
Which of the following options gives the correct sequences of events during mitosis?
(1) Condensation → nuclear membrane disassembly → crossing over → Segregation → telophase
(2) Condensation → nuclear membrane disassembly → arrangement at equator → centromere division → Segregation → telophase
(3) Condensation → crossing over → nuclear membrane disassembly → Segregation → telophase
(4) Condensation → arrangement at equator → centromere division → Segregation → telophase
