Mitosis is the process by which a cell divides. It is a part of the cell cycle.

During the mitosis stage, the cell goes through several stages. The first is Prophase, were the cell is forming it’s chromosomes and is growing spindle fiber. Next is Metaphase, when spindle fibers join together. During the anaphase, the cell’s DNA starts to split into two. The last stage is Telophase, where the nucleus envelope forms, then cells finally splits.
