During telophase, nuclear membranes reform around each set of genetic information. Having performed their function, the spindle fibers that pulled the chromosomes to the poles of the cell disappear. The chromosome doesn’t need to be in a compact form anymore, so it uncoils, allowing better access for the transcription processes that read the genetic information in order to create proteins and enzymes. At the end of telophase, there are two separate nuclei, each with a copy of the original cell’s DNA.Late telophase is when the cell completes the division and
replication of its genetic information. At this point, the nuclear envelope has
fully reformed and the DNA has unfurled, so there are two nuclei in the cell.
The chromosomes only have one centriole, where the sister chromatids were
attached, so the chromosome forms a second centriole next to the first in
anticipation of the next division. At the same time as late telophase, the
cytoplasm and cell membranes separate into two cells, a process known as
cytokinesis.
