The spindle fibers bring the chromosomes together in prophase then apart in telophase.

Yeah the fourth one is right, chromosomes don’t get pulled in prophase, that’s anaphase. And also I don’t even know when the spindle fibers glue back the chromosomes, they get separated in each individual cell and split.
