This is the Prophase.

1) The chromosomes coil up and become visible while the nuclear envelope disappears.
2) Sister chromatids are appears.
3) A centriole forms at each pole and spindle fibers made of microtubules grow out of it.
4) Short microtubules stick out from the centriole in a star shape known as an aster.

I don't remember liking biology but I do remember some things from it.
