Mitosis: the four phases prophase to telophase

MITOSIS

Profase: It is known as the first phase of mitosis. Here, the nuclear membrane remains intact and we can see a nucleus. In addition to DNA duplication, centrosome duplication also occurs.

Metaphase: is a stage of cell division (mitosis or meiosis). Normally, individual chromosomes are not visible in the cell nucleus.

Anaphase: It is the third phase of mitosis and meiosis in which the duplicated chromosomes are separated. The chromatids are then moved to opposite poles of the dividing cell by the mitotic or meiotic spindle so that each daughter cell inherits one copy of each chromosome.

Telophase: It is the fourth and final phase of cell mitosis. It is the reversal of the processes that took place during prophase and prometaphase. The chromosomes are already separated into two groups of chromatids at the two ends of the cell.
