Prophase: Replication of chromosomes and chromosome become visible x shapes.

Metaphase: Chromosomes align at the equator of the cell and spindle fibers attach to each sister chromatid.

Anaphase: Spindle fibers pull the sister chromatids away from each other to the opposite sides of the cell.

Telophase: New separate nuclear membranes form around the different sets of chromosomes and the chromosomes unwind, the spindle fibers start breaking down and and the cell begins to pinch together to separate into two new cells.

Ladies and gents this has been Mitosis.
