In prophase, DNA begins to cluster. In metaphase, two identical, condensed DNA strands line themselves up in the middle of the cell. After metaphase, there are: Anaphase, Telophase, and Cytokinesis. This process excluding or including Cytokinesis is called mitosis.

In the DNA replication for a cell baby, meiosis occurs.
