What are the stages of mitosis?

Prophase - The DNA condenses and chromosomes become visible and the nuclear membrane breaks down. Metaphase - Chromosomes line up at the centre of the cell. Anaphase - Cell fibres pull them apart. The two arms of chromosomes go to each side of the cell. Telophase - A membrane forms around each of the sets of chromosomes. These becomes the nuclei of the new two cells - the nucleus has divided. Cytokinesis - The cytoplasm and membrane divide creating two diploid daughter cells that are identical. This is cell division.
