The 4 Mitosis Phases: Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase
WEBThe four stages of mitosis are known as prophase, metaphase, anaphase, telophase. Additionally, we’ll mention three other intermediary stages (interphase, prometaphase, and cytokinesis) that play a role in mitosis. During the four phases of mitosis, nuclear division occurs in order for one cell to split into two.
Prophase - Wikipedia
WEBProphase (from Ancient Greek προ- (pro-) 'before' and φάσις (phásis) 'appearance') is the first stage of cell division in both mitosis and meiosis. Beginning after interphase, DNA has already been replicated when the cell enters prophase.
Prophase - Definition and Stages in Mitosis and Meiosis | Biology
WEBDec 17, 2016 · Prophase is the starting stage of cell division in eukaryotes. Prophase, in both mitosis and meiosis, is recognized by the condensing of chromosomes and separation of the centrioles in the centrosome.
Prophase | Definition, Mitosis, Summary, & Facts | Britannica
WEBProphase, the initial stage of mitosis and of the mitotic division of meiosis, characterized by the formation of the mitotic spindle and the condensation of the chromosomes. Prophase is followed by metaphase.

WEBProphase is the first stage in mitosis, occurring after the conclusion of the G 2 portion of interphase. During prophase, the parent cell chromosomes — which were duplicated during S phase —...
Cell Division: Stages of Mitosis | Learn Science at Scitable - Nature
WEBToday, mitosis is understood to involve five phases, based on the physical state of the chromosomes and spindle. These phases are prophase, prometaphase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase.
7.1: Mitosis and the Cell Cycle - Biology LibreTexts
WEBJul 30, 2022 · DNA molecules in the cell nucleus are duplicated before mitosis, during the S (or synthesis) phase of interphase. Mitosis is the process of nuclear division. At the end of mitosis, a cell contains two identical nuclei. Mitosis is divided into four stages (PMAT) listed below. Prophase → Metaphase → Anaphase → Telophase
15.6: Mitosis - Biology LibreTexts
WEBDec 30, 2022 · Mitosis consists of prophase, metaphase, anaphase, and telophase, with distinct cellular activities characterizing each phase. This completes the duplication of the nucleus, and is followed by cytokinesis, in which the cell divides to produce two daughter cells. Figure 15.6.6 15.6. 6.

WEBSep 9, 2024 · Mitosis begins at prophase with the thickening and coiling of the chromosomes. The nucleolus, a rounded structure, shrinks and disappears. The end of prophase is marked by the beginning of the organization of a group of fibres to form a spindle and the disintegration of the nuclear membrane.
