  1. do you mean menopause?


  2. Dictionary: metaphase

    The stage of mitosis and meiosis, following prophase and preceding anaphase, during which the chromosomes are aligned along the metaphase plate.

    Veterinary Dictionary: metaphase

    The second stage of cell division (mitosis or meiosis), in which the chromosomes, each consisting of two chromatids, are arranged in the equatorial plane of the spindle prior to separation.

    Wikipedia: metaphase



    An image of a newt lung cell stained with fluorescent dyes during metaphase. The material stained green are the mitotic spindles and the material stained light blue are the chromosomes.Metaphase, from the ancient Greek μετα (after) and φασις (stage), is a stage of mitosis in the eukaryotic cell cycle in which condensed chromosomes, carrying genetic information, align in the middle of the cell before being separated into each of the two daughter cells.



    In metaphase, the chromosomes align in the middle of the cell.

    An electron micrograph of a cell during metaphase.Preceded by events in prometaphase and followed by anaphase, microtubules formed in prophase have already found and attached themselves to kinetochores in metaphase. The centromeres of the chromosomes convene themselves on the metaphase plate, an imaginary line that is equidistant from the two centrosome poles. This even alignment is due to the counterbalance of the pulling powers generated by the opposing kinetochores, analogous to a tug of war between equally strong people. In certain types of cells, chromosomes do not line up at the metaphase plate and instead move back and forth between the poles randomly, only roughly lining up along the midline.


  3. You mean menopause, the time in a woman's life in which her menstrual cycle ends, mostly after 46 or 50

  4. When a woman gets older she stop having her period because of menopause.
