  • Phases of mitosis in order

    Prophase, Metaphase, Anaphase, Telophase

  • Prophase key events

    Nuclear envelope breaks down, chromosomes visible, centrioles move to poles, mitotic spindle forms

  • Metaphase key event

    Chromosomes line up on metaphase plate (equator)

  • Anaphase key event

    Sister chromatids separate, cytokinesis begins

  • Telophase key event

    Daughter chromosomes reach poles, nuclear envelope reforms, nucleolus reappears, cleavage furrow forms
