Answer:

A : Telophase

Step-by-step explanation:

the final phase of cell division, between Anaphase and Interphase, in which the Chromatids or chromosomes move to opposite ends of the cell and two nuclei are formed.

Mitosis is the process in which cells divide to form new cells. The cell that is being described under the microscope is already in the Anaphase stage in mitosis.

Anaphase is the process in which two sister chromatids separate and move to opposite poles of the cell. These two sister chromatids contain identical copies of DNA that are joined at the middle called centromere. The chromosomes are separated by the mitotic spindle. Towards the end of the anaphase the two sister chromatids now have their two separate poles. The mitotic process then proceeds to the Telophase.
